repeatCame back for a repeat of this scramble after doing the Apache Couloir. The traverse from Apache is airy with a bit of class 4. Some lingering snow made the moves in the chimney a bit spicier, but still reasonable. We took an optional 5.4ish chimney after traversing right out of the west chimney that took us to near the summit. Navajo is a cool summit!
