Late start, late finish. The Wave in the evening light.
We went Classic out-and-back from Wire Pass before heat builds starting at 5:10 AM. Wind stayed mild and made exposed sections feel easier. Route markers lined up well, still worth checking maps often.
Soft overcast made for even exposure all day.
Bottom line: Physical map as backup.
Do your homework first.
