South Twin And Galehead Hut

Rise early. Fix a time-table to which you must try to keep.
One seldom regrets having made an early start, but one always regrets having set off too late;
first for reasons of safety-the adage 'it is later than you think' is very true in the mountains-but also because of the strange beauty of the moment:
the day comes to replace the night, the peaks gradually lighten, it is the hour of mystery but also of hope.
Setting off by lantern-light, witnessing the birth of a new day as one climbs to meet the sun, this is a wonderful experience.
