Just a week earlier, we couldn't reach the summit because of the snow / ice pack and how poorly Brenda's shoes were in handling it. The very next day she went to REI, bought new shoes, some of those spiked slip ons and was eager to give it a go. We go back out to Rattlesnake Ledge one week later and all the snow and ice up to the ledge was gone! (here is a link to that hike)
Snapped this of bogie before we headed out, do you think he was really into it?
Snapped a couple pictures of the sign at the beginning of the trailhead, something I do almost every time. I was inspired to pivot my position and caught this one with Brenda giving a "trail face" pose!
Some nice pictures on the way up. 
Here we are at the ledge, it was quite windy but almost dead on perfect!
Finally, some pictures after we came down and walked along the lake to the parking lot. Great day!
