If you recall, we went for the Kansas state highpoint back on Memorial Day and didn’t make it.
It was now time for redemption in Kansas with some unfinished business to tend to!
The highest point in Kansas is on a gentle slope… out in the middle of miles and miles of remote farmland.
Full trip report coming soon…
My 13th time on this summit, but 1st to enjoy some watermelon at the top 🍉 Thanks to Jocelyn, the "Watermelon Girl", who lugged that all the way up and was gracious enough to share it 😁

Veered right a bit of the South saddle (red line) for a more adventurous route up to Timp... but once we got up on the ridge, we saw we could have done an even more interesting way (yellow line) cutting into that cliff band and zigzagging along the shelves as seen in the 4th picture (taken from South Timp).

Only a few patches of snow remain between Aspen Grove and Emerald Lake.

For those interested in doing Deseret Peak... the snow is still in the couloirs, but only for a little while longer!

The best way to slide down a snowy slope in Spring conditions is like this...

Didn`t get much mountaineering in this Spring, so trying to catch the last bit of something before the snow`s all gone.

Not too many cold weather weekends left to go winter camping!

Bagged Bierstadt today! Thought I could get Evans too, but took one look at The Sawtooth and went "nope"! I was also by myself... either way, that stretch looked intense even without the snow.
