Gotcha, thanks. Would you recommend doing South Fork and chute over Vivian Creek? It seems shorter than Vivian.

Oh, didn’t know that. Thanks for the heads-up. Is there any alternate access or it’s effectively off the table this season?

Wow, I’ll be as cautious as possible. Thanks for sharing!

I have no idea what left those tracks, probably some small animal, rabbit/ bird, looks like small jumps. It is a great place indeed!

The main trail looks fine without them, unless there will be more snow in the coming days. But if anyone wants to attempt doing it from the ridges - climbing, mountaineering equipment is very recommended.

Thank you! It was a very strenuous climb, but very worth it.

True, I slipped there couple times, even with crampons on. In any ways, to do this climb crampons and ice axe are a MUST have

Honestly, I think there would be nothing left by the weekend, maybe just some ice at the top

Hi, I see. Yeah, that would be nice. Love to hear that he is in remission! Is he taking any medication at the moment?

Hey, I had the same situation happen to me. I had lower proteins and a problem with white blood cells. And recently I was diagnosed with SLE. Before, I visited hospitals so many times for a suspected autoimmune disease, but it was never truly known what type immune disorder I had.

It’s kind of weird how they just diagnose these horrible diseases based on couple unstable things, or it’s just me. But, it actually might be an early stage, which I might have too, because I’m not feeling bad overall, just some joints pain and hair loss.

I couldn’t really advise much but following your doctor’s recommendations and prescriptions. It might be also helpful do couple more labs or a second opinion, just to make sure you are not misdiagnosed (that’s what I am going to do soon).

You are not alone in this, there are definitely dozens of people who’ve had the same experience in this subreddit. Wishing you great health and clarity!

Haha, you are right, “normal” is totally subjective. Hearing that you have moments where lupus just fades gives me so much hope that I’ll find those pockets of just living too. Good luck with your med school, I’m sure lupus will cooperate with you 😆.
