Here is a bit of what I did with the family this past week. It looks like it will be our only climbing outing for 2011. I may be able to do some others but it will be without the family.
This is in the Pioneer range just east of where Sunvalleylaw lives. It's a pretty rugged and jagged range and the tops are about shoulder width if even that.
This is the view of the south side of the cirque going in

and a view of the north side of the cirque with the Devil's Bedstead on the right

I climbed the unnamed peak on the right here

Can you see me on the top?

The view from the top to the north (it's smoky from fires)

The view to the south and you can see just how narrow the tops are

Looking down below me you can just make out my daughter at the lake side circled in red

And now what it really looked like. I'm not sure the picture really shows how straight up and down this is, but it's a long way down. Can you still see my daughter?

She's pretty into it too, but at a much smaller scale...for now.
