On a cloudy but dry May 24, 2016, 7 scramblers successfully climbed Tamanos Mountain. Snow conditions were variable but generally good for kicking steps, plunge stepping and glissading.
We used the Pratt Lake trail head and so extra miles. Woodland flowers are blooming now and the stream crossings are very pretty.
Weather predicted rain but it held off and even cleared up. Great snow up high and all around a great trip.

Dodged the rain and had a great leisurely hike.
