Finally made it up to Brown's Peak. We originally planned on going to Peak 2, but had to abandon our idea. The fog/cloud cover was really bad (couldn't see anything from the top), and the snow melt from Thanksgiving Day's snowfall made everything too slick. So we decided to stop by the Amethyst Mine on the way back down. (5.5 mi. was the GPS route calculation for us today for that portion of our trip.)

Thanks to all those going for the great company. Couldn't have asked for a better crew to go up with.

Difficulty for me: (of 5), partly because of slick rocks during the final, more steep climbs.
