Hiking out from Granite Peak

Hiking out from Granite Peak, Montana, in September 2024, tired and very happy. It was my third attempt at this mountain and the first one that reached the top. I talked to the camera on the way out. It was still cool, around 42, with a mostly clear sky.

The southwest ramp and couloir side was a lot easier for me than the Froze to Death Plateau approach: a longer hike, less elevation gain. I was very happy to have this mountain done.
