(Click on thumbnail for larger image)

I invited Theo and Max, two of the students from Post 84, on a climb this summer. Though I had previously climbed Triumph it seemed like the right sized objective for this group so back I went. This allowed me to get some photos and settle the question of the left side ledge.

	Break in the shade during the approach.		The pass at which we camp.
	First views of the mountain.		The skyline is our route.
	Camp.		Moon over El Dorado.
	Marshall and Theo on the bivi ledges.		Max on the first simul-climb.
	Max leading the first tower.		Cowboying the "knife edge" section.
	We had great views of the pickets.		The left side ledge.
	Marshall at the notch.		Climbing heather benches which lead to the summit.
	Approaching the summit.
			Weather moving in.
	Theo at notch.		Max rappelling to notch.
	This rappel feels very exposed.		Rappel station below the crux.
	This is my best photo of the crux. It is the right trending crack above Marshall.		Warning sign.
	Typicall rappel station.		2nd to last rappel
	Basin leading back to camp.		We were warned.
