(photo: Taylor Nissi, when-in-Rome)Camp 2. We elected to cut day 2 short by a few hours due to the softening snow and warm weather. With every step, our knees would sink 2ft. deep in the snow, a problem exacerbated by 75lbs. packs. As luck had it, we found this oasis of grass and flat ground amid a huge snowfield. In 90 degree heat, it didn't take arm-twisting to yank out the ground pads and take a nap in the sun.
The feeling of pulling off your boots and socks after a long day trudging through snow, rivers and muck can not be described in words... Dick, would you agree? 
Napping.
Taylor and Dick elected to sleep outside under the stars... err, two hours of twilight.
