Ascent Trip Report

After some quick photos we made our way over the ridge to Loder! This one was fairly straight forward we stopped for a quick bite to eat out of the wind and then hit our second summit of the day! We took tons of pictures the views of not only some of the previous mountains I've done in that area but goals for the summer season where everywhere! (I'm talking to you mount Fable) we signed the registry (will asked if I would for him) and then headed back down. The snow was deep in some sections and super icey in other points made for a slow decent but much easier on the body. We followed the creek bed out which made for an amazing experience. Overall was a great day and a great way to spend my valentines!
