 | Comments: |
Beautiful foliage on the drive in and out. Started the standard approach and Q-wave Quinlan did a beautiful job sniffing out the herd path, particularly through two boggy areas and sections of multiple blow downs. This was, by light years, the easiest of several ascents of this scappy peak. No shin-knockers, corneal abrasions, or need for the balsam breast stroke today. The canister, log books, spatula and elephant trunk all in pristine condition. |
