Glissading was real fun

The descent begins with a cloud dropping a shadow on Sheridan

Southwest Ridge of Sherman (from the left)

Zooming onto some peaks in the Sawatch Range

Blue Skies and a Bright Sun throughout the day!

Zooming onto an unknown "Sawatch" peak

Spectacular Sawatch Range as seen from the Sherdian-Sherman saddle

Majestic slopes of Mt. Sherman from a partially frozen lake

Stunning 360 degree views as we approach the summit

Another of those mines...
