'The Cap' One sunny day

Well, the weather worked out great, if not for the full circuit we had planned at least it turned on for us to get most of the way up.
Ice and snow turned us back.

Yes, I think your right... The peaks look reasonably tame (who knows?), whats between them (and especially further south) probably will not be :)

3rd image, LHS 3/4 of the way down :wink:. Nice shots (and weather), I particularly like the one at the lake. Love to do that walk at some point.

Haha I was only stirring as a couple of the others are truly beautiful shots.
