The frozen snow was pretty to look at but made hiking very difficult.

Our first vista on the South Ridge Trail.

The remains of Snowden Manor.

Cecilia and Xinggao climbing up the South Ridge with a sweeping panorama behind them.

The group hiking out to the Paris Vista.

Steve takes in the view at the Paris Vista (in the valley down to the left).

Our final descent back to the cars.

The recent snow/ice storm caused the dry grass to lie down, appearing as rolling ocean waves with white caps.
