Congratulations Tom on a beautiful peak! The pictures are beautiful & great safe weather too for your day!
I remember meeting both Bill & Bob from SN Boundary peak adventure...they are very nice!
Thank you for sharing :)

My partner and I tried to emulate Tom's great exploit last weekend, but the wind was so outrageous on Sunday that we abandoned all dreams of attempting the summit. We took a short hike along the ridge to the east of Finger Lake instead. The area is quite beautiful, as Tom says. In case anyone needs more pictures of Middle Pal (and believe me, you can never have too many!), here are some.

(By the way, is the peak I'm guessing to be The Thumb really it? There's another peak directly on the Middle Pal ridge that matches up better with the map, but it doesn't look distinctive enough to be THE thumb.)

summit or not you can never go wrong staying up in the palasade area - the morning sunlight on Norman Clyde and Middle Pal are awesome - this just gives you an excuse to go back for more - enjoy the journey
