The SE Ridge to Mt. Harvard is quite loose and dangerous

Monday + Tuesday

Yale + Columbia

Yale via the west ridge from Kroenke Lake. Bivvied on the summit of Yale, since: why not? I was tired and it was 1:00am. Then took the CD ridge to Birthday Peak and the next point afterwards, dropped off it down across Horn Fork Basin, and up Columbia.

My plan was to actually link Yale and Harvard via the Continental Divide Ridge, but that proved too difficult/loose/dangerous, so I dropped down off the ridge, and did Columbia instead. I’ll be back! Maybe.
