Jim Nolan (yes, that Nolan) and Gordon on the 4WD road down Baldwin Gulch.


Baldwin Gulch aide station. That's Jim McManus on the left.


Gordon at the Baldwin Gulch aide station.


Finally! We found the climber's trail up Grouse Gulch.


Blake in a meadow in upper Grouse Gulch.


Gordon, higher on Princeton.


The end of Fred Vance's terrible traverse across steep scree on Princeton. "It'll be much easier than following the ridge", he said. We saw a herd of 20 mountain goats on the ridge in the center.


Gordon watches the heavy rain to the north from Princeton's summit.  You can tell this is  just before the lightning started, because Gordon is still smiling.  That's Yale in the center, Columbia and Harvard beyond.
