We are back at Sandy Camp, our high camp on the
Easton Glacier. We got a break from the rain today, waking to clearing skies and a beautiful morning. Our team worked hard and did a great job, and everyone made it to the top! The views from the summit looking towards Shuksan and Mt. Rainier were spectacular. We plan to leave high camp at 2pm and will be in touch when we get back to town this afternoon or evening.
