Peak 1924


At the ridge now, the peak looms high


Last few dozen feet


Top up ahead

Peak 1924 in mid-day sun, seen from the Margies Cove Trailhead


Peak 2126 from the Margies Cove Trailhead, the ascent drainage in center in shadow for now


The drainage is rocky but lays back well


About 2/3 of the way up, the summit ridge is seen


Look down at the drainage we just came up


At the high ridge, the summit hill, but the top is still not yet in view

The drainage as we exit, now fully in the sun
