Opis:
After the first snow of the season, Cam, Matt and I drove out to Yosemite to climb the North Ridge of Mt. Conness. We didn't think there would be too much snow so we left the tent behind and opted to bivy under the starts. Early into the drive, I realized I forgot my sleeping bag and upon arrival, it appeared that there were quite a few inches of snow on the ground. I felt like a huge idiot with no tent or sleeping bag in 15 degree temperatures but I somehow managed to get about 4 hours of sleep (More than Cam or Matt!) in the trunk of Cam's car before heading out for the climb the next morning. The views were insane and the climbing was consistently fun. We climbed on September 24, 2017.
