Beautiful day to give the North Arete a proper onsight rip. Unsupported - carried climbing shoes, some sugary snacks and a water filter in my big fanny pack.

I probably passed 200 hikers and 10-12 horses on the run up and down - very busy Friday in Little Lakes Valley!

 

Splits were 1:26 to base of N Arete route, 2:15 to summit of Bear Creek Spire, and 3:49 back to trailhead.
