So apparently the burns to my face are 2nd degree, Its beginning to blister up pretty severely and my nose/lips are completely swollen. Very painful, but I still think it was worth it.

If anyone ever decides to summit, I don't care how hot you get, wear some type of hat, and wear lots of sunscreen below your eye-line. Your going to sweat a lot so anything above your eye-line is going to pick up sunscreen and run into your eyes and it sucks.

:nono: I had initially put some on but that's why I stopped re-applying and payed dearly for it - Happy trails everyone and be safe out there.
