| Comments: |
We had a very large group, lead by Carl Rosenthal, and some only made it as far as the water crossing before turning around, and others had a turn around time, and never made the summit. Thanks to Jeff, my hiking partner, the two of us made the summit, in the 15 inches of new snow in the upper elevations. |
