The glacier we're climbing is kind of small and dirty. Which is tough enough for me.
There's all kinds of talus. The moraine is huge. Ankle-busting granite, ready to turn my joints this way and that.
A twin-engine training bomber crashed here in 1942. All four aboard perished. The mummified remains of one airman were found in 2005. A second one was found in August 2007.
Now, the guy who found the second body is going back in September. We're going to tag along.
That photo I have above is not the glacier. It's a col that we will climb at the Sierra crest before we reach the glacier. I'll show you the glacier soon.
