Chasing summits too early was my route planning flaw.
Build skills on gentle trails first.

Disagree with this take honestly. For some of us, jumping into the deep end is how we learn best. My own big mountain mistakes taught me route finding way faster than any flat trail ever could. You just learn a different set of skills when you're scrambling up something real.

My wipeout on Half Dome showed me how real learning happens.

Oh man, my first solo job was a total crash course too.

Man, I see this everywhere, people avoiding hard stuff that actually makes them better.
