Approaching high camp.

First view of the Summit Pyramid with the Sulphide Glacier below

Terminus of the Crystal Glacier

X marks the spot?

First light - 4:00ish

Approaching the Summit Pyramid.

Rock step to the last snowfield.

The crux of the gully (by my evaluation)

From the summit, either the Upper Curtis or the Hanging Glacier.

Sulphide rim route curves around, staying fairly close to the crest to the right of the glacier.

Descending through the mist below the notch.
