Camp Muir, crampon fail

0

Despite the gloomy weather report, the skies were blue at paradise...should have been a great morning at the summit for those who went to the top. My plan was a "quick" up and back to Camp Muir but shortly past panoramic point I had a major crampon blow out. I'd had problems with it on MSH last week but thought it was fixed. Off to REI...
