I was running out of daylight. I didn’t mind walking in the dark, but the higher I’d climb, the longer it would’ve taken down for me to get off the mountain. Also, I was rather concerned about windchill at the peak because it was already quite windy. The day was waning fast and I still had a lot of elevation to lose. I took a stop right here to take a few photos of the San Gabriel Mountain Range. The snow made the mountain range view more beautiful. HDR
