Idaho Exposure

Just ahead is the steep drop to Ocalkens Lake, and the entrance to Bighorn Basin further S. The saddle between D. O. Lee Peak and WCP-9 is now in view on the right skyline marked by a pine in the foreground. From that same pine, one can see the start of the route up which lines up with the ridge in the foreground and the left edge of the foreground pine. The route digonals up 45 degrees to the left, ascending to a rock outcrop almost to the skyline. This is difficult to see clearly because WCP-9 is still backlit. It becomes much clearer the closer one gets.
