    Leanne and Wendy at 3000

    Leanne and Wendy also climbed out to the peak. The temperature shift from sea-level to 3000 feet is rather drastic. It was 60 or so back home and after driving just a few miles there was visible ice and cold cold wind if you stood in the shade. Below are links to 5 photographs from…
