Really nice compositions. Esp. #1,2,4. By the way, which peaks are they, and where'd you shoot from?

I'd say
1- unicorn, cockscomb
2- lyell (nice amount of snow!) & macclure
4- conness

3- young lake, fairview, lembert, clouds rest, half dome, tenaya lake & more
5- cathedral

from young lakes trail

nice work!

Lembert isn't visible in the pict. I think Conness isn't visible from Lembert either.

He's on top of Conness taking some of those pix...


Chick-on is looking at you!

I had an axe but the snow was wobbly and loose and there was no room to self arrest, a couple thousand feet straight down on either side of this.
I wanted to write Happy Mother's Day! in the book (and perhaps bag the year's first summit?) but it was probably buried so this is my Happy Mother's Day! shot.

Rule #1: get home safely! Sounds like fine judgement on your part.

Good choice. That ridge was dicey enough for me with a few patches of snow early last year. I wouldn't have wanted to tackle it with the amount of snow that's on it now.

QITNL, what's snow coverage like? Floatation necessary? I'm thinking about playing in the TM or Tioga Pass areas this weekend, trying to decide what to bring.
