Drederek Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) Climb: The cure for old knees-Mt Ellinor - chute Date of Climb: 6/4/2006 Trip Report: A fun way to start the day. Drive 99.9 % of the way to Upper TH. Hike the bare trail to the snow at 4k. Follow tracks to summit at 5.6k without a single posthole and only two minor slips. Don snowpants and return to 4.2k in about 5 mins on your ass. Drive home 15 mins later. Car to car in well under 2 hours. Home by noon! Gear Notes: shovel would have been nice to cover a bare spot in the chute. Boots, gloves, gaiters, snowpants. Approach Notes: A few 4 wheelers could drive thru the last bit of snow up to the parking lot and make it passable for everyone.
