We did a slightly different route (and reverse) of your trip. What a great day!
It was a great day and it was also nice to me you (and the others), at least in passing.

Thanks! As you can see from Eric's map, there are a bunch of different trails around & over Archer. My plan was to go up the W side and then traverse S on the hanging meadows route but I missed that turn and ended up going directly to the summit. I still want to see the southern viewpoint (and Archer Falls), so this hike is staying on my "to do" list.

Thanks Don. Your SummitPost was key to making this hike work.
