Trip Report

No summit this time but still a beautiful day on the mountain. Many factors contributing to the decision to turn around at the Hogsback. A couple of team members not feeling well, slow progress, warm temps, and big crowds on the mountain were the primary reasons I didn't feel it was worth the risk today. Still everyone had a good time and gained from the experience. We learn and live to climb another day. Thank you Thomas for the strong assist. Danni Harris -leader.
