We did not summit on Sunday.  Just before the storm came in, we had a nice view of the West Lion and Howe Sound at the meadow.  While the wind was howling, we got into the forest and made our way out to the ridge . As we started climbing up the ridge, we hit snow patches on the trail.  It was slippery at times where micro spikes are needed.  We were at least 45 minutes from the summit, the ridge trail was covered with snow patches and the weather condition deteriorated.  When the flurries started to come down, we decided to stop, had a quick lunch and called it a day.   By the time we were back to the meadow, everywhere was sogged in.  We were glad that we were making our way down not up.  There will be another day to summit Mount Harvey. Thank you Pam, Bengul and Ye.
