Approaching summit of McCurdy Peak.

Long shot at 07:30 am from 12,680' looking down southeast towards the beginning of the trail up to Mount Democrat. This shot shows the progression from a smooth, wide trail to start, to a steeper and rockier climb forward. This is halfway to the summit.

Top of the false summit of Mount Democrat looking down at the saddle and trail up to Mount Cameron. That nice lady with a floppy hat is 79 years young and this was her fifth time to complete Decalibron Loop! For scale, zoom to center, below her.
