Magnificent Day for photo ops. It was treacherous in many spots past the Mizpah Cutoff. I put crampons on a little past the cut off. Difficult to see the ice under the snow at times. Used a lot of caution on the way down.
Hiked with this Professional Photographer from Turkey. Really cool guy who had a killer pro camera. He took some awesome pictures. Had a great time and met a lot of nice people including the big crew from the NH Chapter heading up to Edmands to do Eisenhower and Pierce and back down Crawford. Cool People. WE NEED SNOW!!!!!!! |
