Clear sky's on the way up! Thunderstorm on the way down.
Had gorgeous weather the whole way up the South Slopes, and for around 10 minutes on the summit. Had to book it off the top when the thunder started rolling in. Descended the East Ridge under the blanket of a torrential downpour, which defiantly made the descent much more difficult and much less enjoyable.
Overall a relatively easy time route finding, thanks to the Idaho Climbing Guides post (https://www.idahoaclimbingguide.com/bookupdates/imogene-peak/), and a great time in the Sawtooths. Some of the best views in the entire range for sure.

Clouded In
Came up East Ridge. Pretty direct and straightforward route. Unfortunately clouds rolled in and I couldn't see anything except McDonald and Pettit Lakes. Will have to come back again for the views.

XC straight up from Farley Lake
Fun 2,300 ft straight up and down from Farley Lake. Steep dirt and tree slopes. Great view of Snowy Cramer, Decker, Snowyside, Parks, Perfect and lots of lakes. Fun mountain. Not that difficult. Fast going down.

Fall Colors
Great Fall day for a trail run and scramble. Ran to Farley Lake, then scrambled the south slopes to the summit. Descended the east ridge and found a manageable route down, although it's easy to get cliffed in this area.
