BTW it may be easier to add pictures with the help of Add Image -> New menu on the left. This way images are attached right away, and their map locations are more or less correct right from the start too.
South Thunder in winter is quite an accomplishment for sure. Nice photos.

Repeat!
Just did this hike today. It was awesome! Snow conditions were great, even though I wasn't on the trail until 12:45 pm! Thanks for all the descriptions and information, I got off track a couple times but it's pretty easy to find your way. I loved the alpine meadow at around 10k feet, must be really nice in the summer.
edit: I saw your ledger in the mailbox, you guys were the first (recorded) ascent since the fall, and I was the first to go up after you. Leave it up to the SPers eh?
We did this trip again on 11-15-08 and when I read your report of our trip this past spring, I was startled at your accuracy. This time there wasn't as much snow, but our times were almost identical to those we logged in your report. The only advantage we enjoyed was having a recognizable trail between the two Hamongogs. Thanks again for a superb trip report.

Incredible
We always comment about how hard it was physically, but I've found these kinds of trips push you mentally and emotionally as well. So congrats on making it - no small feat.

cool trip!This has been a good year for the Wasatch. For some reason I was in Canyonlands during this precious window of snow stability.
Several of your photos show a unique perspective and are a great addition to SP. Nice job.

Re: IncredibleThanks! I think sometimes the mental effort is more than the physical effort.
