On our last day we circle around to Black Lake and saunter on down. But actually after awhile you could only see the trail dust behind us as we pick up speed during our descent. Even still there were other climbers who were passing us! 

The aches and pains were subsiding from the group and those who had blisters were getting used to them. Everyone had a great time during what turned out to be an entry level mountaineering venture (without the safety gear). Crampons and axes really are a must for some of the terrain we traveled. It was a relief that everyone returned safely.
