Looking up at Temple Crag from Second Lake.

Temple at sunset. A picture I took during a backpacking trip out there.

The beautiful water of Third Lake, Temple Crag in background

An oil painting I did of one of the lakes. I think we climbed Dark Star on that trip.

A nice campsite near the base of Darkstar Buttress.

Checking out Temple Crag and Second Lake

View of Venusian, Moon Goddess and Sun Ribbon from the climbers approach trail.

Temple Crag rappel anchor- Why you should always check the entire rappel sling. This sling was otherwise new, but the pinch at the back was sharp and severed the webbing.

Second Lake view and ambient environment.

Temple Crag the evening before we climbed it (spring ascent - May 2018). The approach was fully covered in snow and crampons and ice axe were required for the approach and descent.

even the pines are colorful this time of year

Heading towards the summit after Moon Goddess...

Temple Crag, as viewed from Second Lake.

Alpenglow on the Dark Star buttress - Temple Crag

Homie if you don't mistakenly camp far from the water down on that flat sandy area and then suffer in the dry dusty heat all night, do you even exist?

High ridges on Temple Crag. Nearest one is Sun Ribbon Arete, the other is Dark Star.

Descent off Temple from CP July 30 2017!

Temple Crag summit register. This thing dates back to the 80's and is quite entertaining to check out.

Don't even need flies! I caught brooks with plastic crappie baits I brought from home...
