IMG_3395.JPG18 viewsWe set up camp, but have trouble deciding whether or not to attempt the peak today. The weather is improving, but it is getting late, having taken longer than we thought to get to this point. Ideally, we should be coming down from the summit of Thompson. The weather is still threatening.
