Amazing slab! Just try to ignore the large blocks somehow still sitting on the face above you...
Nearing the end of the gully.

A view of Avery Peak from the Avery Peak Campground. Note the snow from an early June snowstorm.
Snowy couloir past the gully in mid-June. We could've used some crampons or spikes here.
Heading down. What a view!
Descending the S ridge.
Summit!

Nearing the end of the gully.
On the face at last!
The cruxy corner on the way to the main face. Great rock on the left, not so great rock on the right.
One of the many small rock steps in the gully leading up to the main face.
Starting up the gully. Not the place to be when it rains.
