The snowy peaks were our halfway point on Sunday (lucky I got us up at 5:15am hehe)

Let the descent beginth
We climbed Up

We made the midway point (who's for a snowball fight?)
I'm in!
The drop down to the saddle between Black Ridge (if you look closely you can see some of the group to the left of the first slip on the right)
As you can see, it's quite a drop into the beforementioned saddle
Lunch by a beautiful tarn on Black Ridge (GUO is giving a peace sign...probably eating mung bean sandwiches too)
From whence we'd come
Heading towards Tarn Biv
John the Butcher joined us

Tramping is all about breaking down barriers!
