Looking over at Hawkins. It started to sprinkle a bit and I could see the storm a few valleys over. I did *not* want to do the talus downclimb on wet rock so I quickly snapped my panorama shot and started scrambling back across the summit.

The start of the downclimb to the saddle.

Followed by the descent of the talus chute. I angled left on the descent to head over to that clearing in the upper left.

Panorama shot from the summit, with the 88/89 junction in the valley and this morning's Waterhouse Peak on the center horizen.

Hawkins Peak off across the ridge, to be left for another day.

One last look at the talus chute and summit.

There was a brief glimpse of the peak from near the start of the spur road. It looked as if this side of the ridge was class 2, but the approach vegetation didn't appear to be any more forgiving.

Looking over at Hawkins and Pickett from 89 on the drive home. Crappy conditions for pictures today, Sigh :(
