Looking back down the steep avy slope above the lake that we ascended.Calvin and Sonny start working their way slightly left, we could have gone even more. Stunning views!Chimney PeakApparently Jeff didn't read the guidebook! He's busy ascending the wrong summit here... He should have turned the opposite direction.Pretty good rock on the ridge, starting up to the main summit now.On the summit ridge looking back at our ascent route from Boom Lake at lower right and Jeff's false summit to the east.Fantastic views off the blocky ridge towards Chimney Peak and the glaciers lining it's east face.I have to admit the views from Bell are pretty spectacular on a nice day. This is the view towards Castle Mountain.
