Where Fools Dare

So call me a fool. I should have known better. The storms cleared a few minutes later but returned in a couple of hours, catching me out in the open on the way up Mount Ida.

Mount Julian is the peak on the left, and Chief Cheley is in the center. Mount Ida is just visible on the far right; its summit ridge is beyond the ridge in the right foreground.
