He'll definitely summit Springer, I'm willing to place money on that.  He's
already a 2000 miler, and is certainly a thru-hiker!  If he happens to skip
some miles, here on out, I would think it's weather related.  But I don't
think so, he's come too far, the challenge and the goal is nearing.  

No matter the complaints, hiking in serious weather can only add to the
experience!

Go Felix!

PS  I think he's smart enough to bail out, if necessary.
