I arrive at the D. O. Lee/WCP-9 saddle about 5 pm, an hour and a half after starting.  I can see rain falling to the east-southeast, and felt a few drops on the ascent, but there was none of the feared lightning.  Below is the inlet to Cirque Lake.  Below that is Sapphire and Cove Lakes, all in the Big Boulder Lakes Basin.
