Necronomicon Posted February 19, 2003 Author Posted February 19, 2003 (edited) Spantik Golden Pillar(from RISK online) "The ascent was done from the first attempt since June 7 2000 till 18. We were on the top on 6 a.m. Down to base camp - June 19. More than 2000 meters. Difficulty: 6B (Russian grade) and ED2, 7a, A3 French grade." Edited February 19, 2003 by Necronomicon Quote
Off_White Posted February 19, 2003 Posted February 19, 2003 Yeah, but the conditions are so much better there than on Colonial Peak. Quote
Necronomicon Posted February 19, 2003 Author Posted February 19, 2003 I added quotation marks to clear up any misunderstandings. Off-White: If conditions improve without a thaw/freeze cycle, than a steep ridge may offer better climbing than an alpine ice climb. Quote
