As part of Mt Richardson. Back at it at 5am after another short sleep (about 7 weeks of pushing the sleep dial down to 4 hrs is catching up with me). Kind of lazy start at 6am to getting bikes in Rob's van led to 30 min behind...and that is kind of how the day went. Bashed our way up Richardson from the valley swatting mosquitos. Did the long ridge approach and then slogged up. Lots of snow on top with huge cornice. Descent to Pika was going to be snowy and with Kelly no crampons, and Rob no ice axe or crampons...we were done. Long descent and walk out via Hidden Lake.
