North Face Triumph in Winter


Necronomicon

Recommended Posts

OW - it's called a pre-climb TR!

 

did you check the gallery? I uploaded a number of pics from the same flight, different mtns though. I have a few more as well. I hope I don't get too much hate mail for showing someone's project.

I have a slide of the N face of Triumph taken in 1986 during a winter ascent of Mt Despair. However, I don't have a slide scanner. So, that probably doesn't help you much.

 

Okay, now I have a scanner. Here's the pic. This was taken in early March, 1986, during the first winter ascent of Mt Despair. We had climbed the standard route on Triumph the previous day. This was during a fine weather spell following a period of heavy snow followed by heavy rain. I believe Jim Nelson and Kit Lewis climbed the NE buttress of Slesse during this same period.
