East Williams Spire, WA - South East Face

Another Chris and Dave adventure...this time we rode our mountain bikes to the old town of Monte Cristo and then packed a small rack and rope to climb the SE Face on East Williams Spire. Although the weather wasn't the greatest we did manage to summit as well as eat some berries on the way in.
