Trip Report by Dean Perez
Thanks to Marek for providing a GPS waypoint and to Ben(DoubleE alpinist)for giving me coordinates of the trailhead.
We used Jeff's well detailed TR: http://www.clubtread.com/sforum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=32012
The trail up to the tarn/bivy site is well flagged and easy to follow. It would be suck if anyone carrying an overnight gear as I find it steep.
Views from the bivy site
Getting up to the saddle between East summit was quite intimidating but the rocks were really good to scramble. There were some few awkward moves including the short gully with the sling
From the east summit, we followed the ridge.
View from the summit. Adrien deserves an hour nap after killing a horse fly with his pole.
The descent
It was nice to finish the day swimming at the lake after a scorching hot day.
