The Ledges

Monday May 6th, 10:30 AM. After sorting gear and food to eliminate any unneeded weight, Scott Brown (a guide from Sierra Wilderness Seminars) and I set off on the Mountaineers Route. After climbing from the portal for a while, we reached the ledges. Most of the ledges are walkable, but there are two particular areas where climbing is necessary. Going up was challenging with a pack. Coming down was the most fear inducing part of the entire route.
