La Madrugada

Only a horizon of clouds broke up the perfect break of dawn. It was definitely worth the stumbling and scrambling in the dark. I sat and watched the sun break for over 30 minutes and then enjoyed another 2.5 hours of solitude sitting on the peak. Remember, it's cold up there. You need layers, balaclava, gloves, wind-rain breakers. Besides these photos, I also took video clips.
