 Yale This Year!   

Last year on 30 June I walked into a whiteout on Yale about 2/3ds of the way up and turned around. This time, on 28 June, the weather was clear though I will admit losing the trail in the rocks on the summit ridge. Gorgeous view that morning around 10ish with clouds moving in. No snow at all on trail. There was a lot of rain that night but I was north of their by then (preparing for Belmont). Glad to have made it this time even if I lost a camera on the way down (one-use so no big deal--just lost my pics).
