We started off with clouds and a little rain, but it cleared pretty quickly. It was a steady climb of about 3100’ to get to the summit. From there we contoured along the ridgeline to Ptarmigan Pass (11,777’). We then unfortunately had to gain some elevation again to pick up the trail back to our cars. Clouds were building on the way down, and we got some sprinkles but nothing crazy.
