    Washed out creek

    it's almost cliche, but the floods of 2013 did a number.. the approach along the creek is rough. I think there use to be a trail along the creek in the trees but it's gone now.. just remnants remain.. this approach was similar to Bryant and Compression.. deja-vu for sure.

    Creek approach

    We took the creek approach instead of the east ridge approach so we could see things like this. The creek was pretty cool.

    The terrain was gorgeous.

    Exit the forest.

    Part of the creek gets very narrow and cliffy. There is a trail through the forest on climbers right that you can take to bypass it.. This is the end of the bypass. (note the large rock and the cairn) from here if you're heading "in" you'd rejoin the creek to gain the headwall.

    Further along the creek there was some left over snow. I LOVED the texture left as the snow was melting.. sometimes the creek went straight underneath these snow outcroppings.. It was totally cool.. I loved the green and the meadow like sides.. Mt Cornwall in the distance.
