Cyrstal Crag at sunrise.  Nice shot of the east face of the crag from our campsite at Lake George.

Lake George.  At the base of the crag is the very scenic Lake George.  Mammoth Crest is in the background.

East Face.  An upclose shot of the east face of the crag.

Hiking up to Crystal Lake.  From Lake George, the trail switchbacks steeply uphill into the Crystal Lake basin.  Along the way you come to several viewpoints looking out over the Mammoth Lakes and out to the crest.  On the horizon in the center of the photo is Blue Crag, and to its left, Duck Pass.

North Arete.  From the trail, looking straight on at the north side of the crag, with its striking arete leading to the summit.

Warning sign.  The forest service tries to scare off would be climbers with this sign pronouncing the crag "Dangerous to Climb".
