Climbed the President, then Vice President, from the Stanley Mitchell
Hut on July 8th. Able to cross the creek draining the glacier on a
snow bridge that may not be there for long. Good freeze and great
cramponing up the the glacier. The bergshrund at the col is easily
passable on climber's right on a good snowbridge.
Climbed Mt McArthur and Isolated Peak on July 9th from the Stanley
Mitchell. Like the Presidents, great cramponing in the morning.
Descended from Isolated Peak without crampons.
Numerous snow patches and snow fields to cross on the Iceline Trail
on the way out yesterday.
Happy trails
