A week-long trip to the Sierra with Colette, Johann, Hector, Stephanie, Romain, and Linda. After an acclimatization hike to Mt. Baldy in the San Gabriels, we went up to camp at Third Lake for a few nights. From there, most of us climbed Venusian Blind Arete on Temple Crag. After moving camp even higher, we climbed Mount Gayley via an old-new route (NW Ridge), North Palisade via Starlight Buttress, and some of us also did the Swiss Arete on Mount Sill.
