Hiked up to 2nd Lake via Shepherd Pass on July 3rd with Amber, Doug & Brenda, then went to bed early. Amber, Brenda & I got up and started hiking to Mount Williamson through Williamson Bowl around 3am via the standard route up the chute/chimney, getting back to camp only moments before a horrible afternoon hailstorm. The next morning, we slept in until 7am, then Amber, Doug & I headed up to Mount Tyndall via the North Rib, again returning to camp a few minutes before a rainstorm. After napping for a few hours, I got up & hiked to Polychrome Peak solo to watch the sunset. We hiked out on July 6th. This was a fun, but tiring holiday weekend!
