Our first views of the East Pk of Goat Mountain. Final scramble (Megan
& Jon) went fine, however
no views until we headed down. We waiting 90 minutes and as soon as we
left, the sun broke through.

Jim takes over digging after my back gives out and almost makes the
discovery.
Mt Shuksan. Far right: Cloudcap Peak and Nooksack Tower.




We finally got sun when we started down. Its amazing how the weather gods
always make it clear
after leaving the summit. The snow got soft and snowshoes needed for the
return. Mt Baker at 7pm.

Tom and Connie's dog Ariel loves to play (and she never gets tired). View
from the top of my hike.
