YocumRidge Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Anyone who climbed NEB via Crossover descent know what is the current situation with water sources or remaining snow? Worth bringing a stove? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonathanjarrett Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) I was on it last weekend. There was lots of flowing water at/near the propeller cairn. There would be no problem getting water there. There was a chunk of snow at the large bivy ledge but no real running water. There were some sections of snow on the descent but no real substantial flowing water until you got past Crossover Pass proper. We carried three liters each on a cloudy/cool day and that was adequate. Good luck Jonathan Edited August 24, 2017 by bonathanjarrett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
