Taking a break on the summit. Normally this wouldn't have been a difficult hike but the weather and the slippery slopes made for a long, tiring, St. Pat's Day. The beer we brought up never made it out of our packs.
Descending the summit.
Trevor's method of descent. . .slip and slide. The slopes were so slick that we decided to slide down the mountain. Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!
1.5 to 2 hours from the summit.
Getting closer as the weather slowly deteriorates over the summit.
Victory! A few quick pictures from the summit and we left. I think this was a record for the least amount of time I had ever spent on a summit.

This is suede. We met him at the base of the Quandary. He stayed with us until about 1/2 way up the mountain and then we lost him. . .or should I say, he lost us. We were going too slow. I can only imagine how many times Suede has climbed that mountain.
