Easter in Wilkinson's Valley:

April 9-10, 2004

 

Perfect campsite for my Bibler.

 

Townsend granite, near Abbott saddle.

 

Sunset view down Wilkinsons Valley and the south ridge of Abbotts peak.

 

I set out before breakfast to hike up Townsend and Abbotts. The overnight temperature in my tent was -9C, but still no snow.

The sweeping treeless valleys are waiting for this year's snow.

The valley floor is covered with frost.

 

 

From Townsend I look down on Abbott.

 

Dawn view of Mt Jagungal.
