Gilman lake from the outlet on the north shore. The Hoover Lake drainage (past the lake) still had a fair amount of snow.

Scree at the bottom of the west slope of Dunderberg as I started the ~3000ft slog. (Directly into the rising sun)

Looking down at Gilman Lake from a little bit up the slope. (Epidote Peak on the right and the Hoover Lakes out of sight in the bowl to the left).

Past the short class 3 section and beginning the long talus slog to the peak. The rock on this short ridge edge was better consolodated than most of the slope.

Slow going over steep, crappy, loose talus. Travered up to the edge of the snowfield and then followed it upslope.
