Maude with MtnPhil in a long day last Thursday by the couloir on the West Face. Snow conditions were pretty good with solid neve above about 7000 ft, and we were about 12 hours round trip from the Phelps creek trailhead. Third time was a charm for Phil! details here Gear Notes: truck, snowmobile, skis, snowshoes, crampons, boots in that order. Approach Notes: were were more or less able to follow the summer approach.

AllYouCanEat Posted December 31, 2004 Posted December 31, 2004 Dude, phil/dave you should have skied that. I will but you have to let me use the mobile either that or help me lose my job. Hmm? Do you want to do alpental on sunday? Quote
Alpinfox Posted January 1, 2005 Posted January 1, 2005 Snowmobiles are aid! Yeah, they help you have fun. So I wasn't able to find any previous reports (in AAJ) of a winter ascent of Mt. Maude. Anyone else know of one? Quote
klenke Posted January 2, 2005 Posted January 2, 2005 (edited) When did those two guys ski the North Face couloirs last year (2004)? Was that in winter or spring? I forget who it was but they came in from Holden via Copper Creek. Ah yes, here's that report. Looks like they climbed/skied it on or about 3/22/04. According to my calendar, spring officially began on 3/20 so their ascent did not occur in winter. Edited January 2, 2005 by klenke Quote
