Just perfect weather! The clouds in the background are actually plumes of smoke from wildfires.
Interestingly, after a decade of cramponing up steep snow and skiing down, the snowfield on this route was petrifying without crampons and down climbing it was unthinkable. So much so that I chose to down climb wet fifth class rock instead. Twelve years ago, before I had ever used crampons, I dashed up and down the snow field in leather boots and one alpine axe without hesitation.
