Next objective PT13230 (L) - Nebo (R)...
However my focus was on the snow in the saddle between the two. This was my planned exit from Nebo at the end of the day. I was not carrying crampons or an axe.
On to PT13320
PT13320(L) - Nebo(R) and a lake with a little rock island

Down Nebo's east ridge. PT13230 across the way. Would be nice to not have to climb that again to exit
Looking across to PT13110 and the lake with the little rock island
Hmmm... steep than it looks but maybe I can jam myself between the snow and the wall on the right
Yep... kinda spicy without sharp stuff and I got a little wet... but better than having to re-climb PT13230
Looking back to Nebo and my descent gully on the left
