Gothic Basin, Del Campo and Gothic Peak

Ever since Andrew and I climbed Vesper Peak and the other peaks around Vesper Lake, we've wanted to repeat that with Gothic Basin. So, when we needed a training backpacking trip, we decided to load up our packs and do an overnight. Camped by Foggy Lake, enjoyed a full moon rise during dinner, then climbed Del Campo Peak in the morning, followed by a spicy traverse over to Gothic Peak where we climbed the north ridge instead of the usual south-east face route. Ended up being 12 miles and 4900 feet of elevation gain.
