Thanks for being my partner on this hike to Point Powell, Ridgeline! Even though we didn't make it, it was a fun day and a challenge.

I think we did about 12-13 miles, with 5400' el gain (is that right, Ridgeline?) Thanks!

It was a great day in the mountains, I ran a profile on my computer with the NG maps and the day was 12-14 miles 5500' to 5700' ele gain. The photos tend to bring the 45 to 55 deg slope area to a mellow looking slope, I dont know how you did Whitney/Muir the following day. Im ready to go back and complete the summit, we were right there and didnt know where the chute to the top was.
Oh, lazy me, Ill post the rest of my photos in a day or so.
