Much of the beginning of the hike was in snow - at the time we thought it was a challenge (until the next day)
A long pause while Ed and Chris scout out where the trail might be
Ed reports on his having located the trail

Out of the snow, we start the ascent to the peak
Both Mt. Lassen and Mt. Shasta come into view
