Just below the summit, with a view down across to the Nokhu Crags, 12,485 feet:



Summit photographs on Static Peak, at 10:15 a.m., perched high in the clouds of the Never Summer Mountains.
At this time there was no particular urgency with the weather, as there was little force behind it and no electrical activity:

With the initial ascent of the 5.0/5.2 North Ridge behind us,
We then focused our activities on scrambling down the half-mile long third class route of the knife edged East Ridge …

… Which I will continue with this evening.
Glad you all are enjoying this modest "springtime" tour in the Never Summers!

Lucky enough to get a personal viewing a few days ago. It's even better the second time around. Thanks!

You guys look like you're geared ultra fast & light, but I was adding it up ... snowshoes, crampons, ice axes, rope, cams, a few biners plus food, drink and some bad weather clothes -- that's not a weightless load!
