My 2nd summit of Fortification Hill. A wind advisory was issued for the area and we definitely noticed it on the way up! The gusts were most intense right before the rock ledge scramble. However amazingly there was hardly any wind on top and the summit was tranquil and calm.
(notice the photo the flag is not even blowing!) A beautiful view as always!
