Write Up:
Nine members made the start and lucked out on the weather if sunburn is any indication. Everything went according to plan and conditions were good. More ridgewalking and minor summits could have been accomplished but after reaching the high point the group backtracked and bailed down a ridge and a road back to the vehicles for snacks and drinks. Everyone seemed to indicate 10 hours was adequate for a spring warm up hike and not too much concern was expressed that the elevation gain was underestimated at 4000 when it was really about 5.
