Would like to hear if you've been over Cartridge in the past few weeks or in the Basin. Heading up next week and wondering about taking/leaving the ice ax...

Excellent. Thanks Bob! Would that pic be from Observation Peak?

From Vennacher Needle. From Observation one can see Dumbbell Lakes, but not into Lake Basin.
