On July 15 long time friend of SMI Betsy Northam joined Kurt Wedberg on a climb of the SE Ridge of Mt. Langley. We were blessed with a clear morning and wildflowers out in full bloom. Thunders clouds began to build by the afternoon but we had descended back to the cars long before the rain started. Congratulations Betsy on a great climb on a beautiful and remote route on Mt. Langley!
Here are a few highlights. The rest of the pictures are here: http://kurtwedbergphotography.com/Sierra-Trips/2010-Sierra-Trips/Mt-Langley-July-15-2010/12953960_oCo3c#936893477_MwC4a
