  1. Impressive to attempt the 9-peak challenge in snow! Beautiful pics on the divide. Looks like you were walking on the top of the crust. Did you have any postholing later in the day?

  2. Yes! That picture is of the ascent to ESB…we ended up postholing from ESB to Anderson Flats where we decided to descend to Trailforks Springs then Jackstraw Springs for camp.
