Super light winds, comfortable temps, and clear skies were an invitation to spend the wee hours of this morning on Mount Madison's rocky slopes, watching the skies change from a starry night into a morning of beautiful fair weather clouds.
I took the good old Valley Way, which, be warned, still sports a good 1/4 mile or so of monorail above the tent platform sign. It's actually more of an side escalator-like looking affair at this point, with two foot grooves and many branches poking you in the face, really entertaining when totally frozen at 2:30 am. Looking forward to a great summer up high!
