wow what a day - hot and clear. Ran into one other group of guys headed up Tunnel Creek. Trail is in pretty good shape to the lake. A little bit of snow beyond the lake. Great views from the saddle - great stopping spot for lunch and turnaround place if needed - but the peak called to us and we headed on up - that part is steep and slick requiring a variety of plant belays. Took a nap on the top of the peak - enjoying the sunshine and great views. Mt Constance is right there in your face and the ridgeline temps you to continue on. After a good hour or so we all headed on down celebrating a great day. Alas my digital memory chip failed so have no awesome pics to share....bummer. there were a couple blowdowns at the top but all were navigateable by foot.
