That summit ridge looks challenging with snow, way to persevere! Old man winter must not have gotten the memo that I opted out that day, before your bluebird morning disappeared. I've been thinking about changing my screen name to Captain Precip!
Nice pics as always, Kevin. I wondered what kind of weather you'd find down there, and when I didn't find a TR posted by Mon. morning, I wondered if you'd had to abandon the quest this time. Congrats to all of you; I think I'll try it in summer!

Great ReoportGreat TR. Very well laid out. Sounds like a good peak even if it was a bit of a PITA, losing the snowshoes and the wind and all.
