Mt. McLoughlin Summit

Here is a USGS aerial photo of Mt. McLaughlin.  We summited from the east side, you can see the spine in these pictures and compare it for a sense of location.  It seemed like it would be a decently easy summit in the summer, just a slog, but because we did it in this time period where there is a lot of melting and refreezing, there was a layer of verglas over everything at the top making it a little sketchball, but thats why we have ice tools.  It is a super underrated cascade volcano.
