Click on the photo in the corners (2015) to see the differences between 2015 and 2017, pretty cool. :nod:

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Have a safer backcountry experience by using the HST ReConn Form 2.0, named after Larry Conn, a HST member: http://reconn.org

Oh, man... the picture of the western side of the Minarets is frightening! My partner and I are questioning the end-of-July meet up. Will we have to lug ice axe and crampons?
