| Comments: |
Went up with some friends for sunrise on the summit. Although the summit was cloud-socked for most of the time we spent up there, an occasional opening in the clouds made for some incredible (albeit brief) views with wonderful color. By the time we reached South Peak, the summit was clear. |
