Steve climbing the couloir up out of the Yang Yang Lakes area.
Topping out to say hello to Mt LeConte
. . . (big
picture)
But there's still more climbing . . .
and it drops off steep and dark deep below.
A chance for a rest . . .
. . . by a lake.
Then back to climbing up the shoulder of Mt LeConte
. . . (big
picture)
Looking back to Spider-Formidable col . . .
How did we get from there to here?
Mt Baker on the left, beyond the plain of low clouds.
(need more resolution . . . or imagination)
The way ahead to LeConte Glacier, with the usual Ptarmigan puzzle of
where next? . . . traverse, then turn to climb right . . . ?
But actually not so bad after all.
Dave and Steve traversing just under the rocks.
. . . (big
picture)
And there's the LeConte glacier in full.
Just have to get through those crevasses,
. . . and not slide down into the abyss first.
