Great work guys, looks like a nice loop. I second the Yale not being a pushover in winter claim. I headed in the day after you from the Avalanche Gulch side and hit the east ridge, there was some tough stuff below tree line. We saw your tracks on the summit and figured we just missed whoever they belonged to. Solid work!
