Left at 4:50am, summited at 8:30. Ideal summer conditions all the way up. Solid snow on summit, slightly patchy on the ridge but not an issue - guy in our group went the whole way in La Sportiva approach shoes, rest of us boots. Got back down around noon. Weather was so perfect and wind so minimal we stayed on the summit for about an hour. Trail is 99.99% clear allllll the way up. Snow has melted so much in the past 2 weeks and all in the right places on Elbert. |
