Clouds filling the valley, coming over the pass to the east.

Paul looking into the valley from the ridge around 10,400 feet.

Some wildflowers in the foreground, and clouds/mountains in the background.

Mayela, approaching the plateau -- finally! About 10,600 feet. It was beautiful.

On top at last! We followed a path of stone cairns across the plateau. One of them can be seen here.

Mayela, heading across the plateau on day two. Froze-to-Death mountain can be seen in the distance.

The clouds seemed to fill and cover the rest of the world, except for where we were. It was like our own private "path in the sky".

At about 10,900 feet, we found the first shelter, nestled in a nice little green mountain meadow. What a view!
