| Comments: |
Bare booted to Chimney. No ice flows until we approached the summit of Starr King.
Used spikes from chimney to summit & back.
A coating of black ice on the rocks beyond the spring.
Someone hung a beautiful red Christmas bow on the summit.
It was a pleasure meeting Ben ( a young police officer from Lancaster) & his dog, Ruger.
A fantastic day out with my main squeeze. |
