Traversing the Bells. 08/13/2011.
The Bells Traverse with some May snow (the crux rock sections were dry, but there were some added crux snow sections).
Nearing North Maroon.
The crux section of the traverse. We climbed up the low 5th Class chimney in the heavily shadowed corner on the left.
N Maroon from near the summit of S Maroon. The traverse looks pretty easy from here!
