4 miles of hiking • 3500' elevation gain •
Partner was definitely not at 100%. decided to bag going for Leuthold's Coulior and just enjoy sunrise at Illumination Saddle. Partner's feet looked like hamburger back at the truck (new boots), plus his appetite and energy were not normal, so, probably made the best choice. disappointing with the mountain in utterly perfect shape..next time.
Lunar Eclipse did make it worth it.

Nice views & eclipse, but it looks so cold!
