Snowbridge antics since we crossed the rock rib too low/climbing in late season

Standing on top of Torment - view of ridge line all the way to Forbidden in the distance.
After rapping down from the notch at the base of Torment you arrive on the north side. Top right is the steep snow traverse in Aug.

On top of Torment looking toward Forbidden
Torment and Forbidden from Hidden Lake Lookout, 3/18/2020
Our second bivy, at the start of the steep snow traverse. Enough for two here, plus room for 3 more in other nearby spots. Still got pestered by a woodrat here who ran across us and chewed the gear loops of my harness.

The traverse seen from the top of Mt. Torment (Forbidden Peak being the prominent spire in the background)
A North Cascades gem for sure.
Looking back at the first snow traverse (we went too low!)
Starting to close in on Forbidden peak and the finish of the classic TFT.
