Only two very small snow patches left on the trail on the road side of the pass.
Be careful of loose material on the approach and on the sandy benches at the summit.
The weather was beautiful but got chilly in the shade if you stopped moving.
We followed the standard Mountaineer's route description which works well.
Our double rope rappel pull from the summit got stuck and took some time to retrieve. Three 30m rappels would have been faster.
A first climb for Brynne and Ryan and a graduation climb for Swapnil. Congrats!
