A scramble up Holy Cross Mountain in the Highwood Range. For more information go to http://www.fresh-oxygen.com/vern/scrambles/holycross/holycross.html.

A bright yellow resident greets us on the approach trail.

Our first good view of the mountain. We should have trended a pretty hard left from here instead of going straight ahead before going left.

Ascending the lower ridge.
