  1. Trip: eldorado peak - Inspiration Galcier Trip Date: 06/23/2018 Trip Report: We started 12 AM in the night to push for one day summit C2C . The starting of route was to cross the tree logs over the streams few of them in night it was quite a challenge but after that it was easy to navigate using headlamps. Boulders field were dry so we were easily able to cross them just following bearing We hit the snow around 4000ft and from there just straight up at this point mist started. We reached the base of summit 7600ft around 6:00 AM when weather changed quite a lot windy, cold and no visibility (this was not a forecast . We waited under rocks safe place 30 mins to get clear weather but it didn't change so we continue to tag the summit , we had no views we stand for 1 min on summit no one was there and then we started descending and reached cars around 1:30 pm. We saw 2 parties coming up on glacier and then on boulders filed more climbers were coming up for 2 day summit , we noticed it was not easy to assent/decent boulder field with heavy packs. Overall it was awesome climb. Gear Notes: standard glacier travel Approach Notes: wet boulders filed is a challenge
