The spot goatboy suggests will accomodate a troop of boy scouts, and girl scouts to keep them company. Still lots of snow there for water.

Date of Climb: 8/26/2006
Trip Report:
Found the route to quite enjoyable despite copious quantites of loose rock. Bivied after the steep snow/ice slope. Pitched out about 4 pitches from the start on Torment. Back in BB by 1 or so. Kicked back a couple hours and hiked out.
No digitals, sorry. Have to wait for film.
Gear Notes:
Small alpine rack. Used 2 screws, could'a used maybe 2 more. One 50 mtr. rope was just swell.

If I got smart with you, how would you know?

Climbed Twilight Pillar last month. Was a little disappointed.

Hey guys just wondering if anyone has used these roads to access the north side of Mount Bryce. I will be in the area for the first time in August and will be cruising in a small rental car. I have no idea what conditions could be present, especially after rain. Guess I am wondering if you need a four wheel drive and/or high clearance vehicle thanks.
LTV is back up and has some info
-
Will be there in a month as well. Any info appreciated. LTV is currently down.
-
just back in and saw this.
to the accident.
that you're doing better. -

Any doubt run it out.
Exactly. Carry a few that you might need, may as well be lighter.
-
But the range is wider so you carry fewer of them, therefore the rack is lighter.
Cam junkies never carry fewer cams.

found mine for free lying on the ground after getting lost trying to find the top of the sherpa glacier on mt stuart last spring - figured at the time whoever was carrying musta died nearby - maybe he had a partner?
Interestingly, I bootied mine as well. Found near the top of Ptarmigan ridge a few years ago.

Viper or Quark?

Its a pretty notorius area. We experienced a crevasse fall there in 2002 and a guided party a couple days behind us had their lead guide fall in and get a little beat up.
My condolences to the family and friends.

Met/know the daughter. A beautiful well adjusted girl.

Did I call anybody a gaper?
No worries,
Sorta leaning toward triple couloirs. Predictions as to condition, say mid april? Guess I shoulda mentioned doesn't nesscesarily hafta be dry rock. And its not really in lieu of AK, that'll be Canadian Rockies
-
Love the pickets but the effort of getting there is worth more than the couple days I'd have to stay. Spent a week in the northern in 2000. I changed my vacation schedule, so tho I now have time in spring, it is broken into smaller chunks of time. (With work in socal in between)
When would the road up depot cr melt out?
-
I'm sure many of you will get a big laff outa this but,
I suddenly find myself with a lot of spring, time. My AK trip fell thru so can you guys recommend some good technical alpine routes that may be in shape between now and mid-may. I'm not a local so its a bit tough to stay in the loop. Anything up to 4 day trip will work. I have the CAG's circa late 70's/early 80's.
titter away..

Its been a bit heavy snow tho. Still.. had fun in the BC today!

I don't understand what her motivation would be?
