Looking toward UN 13,284, the next peak on our agenda. The traverse is much more rugged than it appears from here and holds some surprisingly good scrambling.

Pick your fun level on the way to UN 13,284. Quality 3rd, 4th, and even 5th class scrambling can be found.

To get to UN 13,026 we dropped more than 2000 feet into Marten Creek and climbed 2000 feet back out the opposite side.

Looking down the Marten Creek drainage from UN 13,026. Reportedly some nasty stuff down there so we avoided it, staying on the surrounding ridge crests except for the single crossing.

Kevin approaches the rocky summit of UN 12,801. Two peaks to go. The next one will be Kevin's 300th 13er!
