Just as the sun is coming up, the guys are just behind the scrub oak
Typical trail conditions
Looking west down a draw toward Magna
Nice morning glow with the moon.
Storheim can be seen in the bottom portion of the photo
Deer that we spooked, notice the two small bucks that survived the harsh winter. Their reward is the harem they are hanging out with...
The Salt Lake Valley wasatch front.
Heading north toward the 2nd climb of the day, Antelope Island in the background.
Same herd of deer from earlier crossing some deep snow.
Sam, Peter and Greg trudging up the climb.
Storheim just behind us.
The reward at the top of the climb. Francis peak is far left, just outside the picture frame. There is a lot of snow up there.
Looking southwest from the same spot as the picture before, Storheim, Peter and Sam.
Looking more directly south.
Still more climbing.
The storm front approaching from the west created quite a contrast with sun we were enjoying.
Untracked section of trail, careful where you step.
Greg found a weak spot.
This section left some marks
Peter approaching the top of the last climb.
Sam, Greg and Storheim just behind us.
Peter, just before the long drop back into City Creek.
Peter's wounds from the snow
My shins
Storheim with something suspicious in the background.
Peter chased one of the deer we saw earlier and claimed a souvenir.
