Mt.Triumph, Northeast Ridge

Looking north to where we are going.

Looking south from where we came.

The Southern Picket Range from our camp.

Sunrise over a thick marine layer.

Mt. Triumph. Our objective is the right hand ridge crest.

Crossing the glacier toward the ridge.

Michelle climbing snow to access the ridge crest.

A snowy Picket Range. Is it really the middle of summer?

Michelle cruises an exposed traverse around a gendarme.

On the summit!

Summit shot.

Rappelling from near the summit on the descent.

Making our way back down the ridge.

And finally back down the snow.

An afternoon view of Mt. Triumph.

A perfect camping spot.
