Hiking up dry grassy forest.A gorgeous day.Zombie Peak.Winchester Ridge finally comes into sight.Views from the escarpment on approach - Winchester at right.Side-hilling the west side of "SE Hill".Scenery at the col.Looking north to an unnamed ridge just north of the Panther River.The false summit at center, true at far left. We descended down the false.A rising traverse along the south face.Looking back to SE Hill.We ascended just left of Phil and above.Shirt sleeves, warm sun, no wind. A perfect Spring day.Choosing our line.An easy line up the south face.
