Climbed solo on Mt. Princeton today for a third try. Last week, storms were rolling in. Yesterday, 'Alpinegoat' (Arvind) and I tried and were blown off the mountain after passing the "ridge crest" described in the Bill's route. Today, totally different story. I was not only the only person on the mountain, but conditions were amazing. A couple of gusts at the ridge crest, and that was IT. The snow covers some of the route but actually makes the talus slopes easier in my opinion. Here is a video from the summit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udhK91xvDo8
