pete_a Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Leaving for Wadd ski trip next friday...just going through the gear pile trying to decide if theres a need to throw in extra screws or picket for a rap anchor. The last little steep pitch up to the NW summit doesn't look too long, but I'm curious what others have done in the past to get back down...rap? downclimb? will two 30m glacier ropes be frustratingly short to get up and down that last bit to the top? thanks.

Don_Serl Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 you're going in april - there won't be ice for screws (not that there ever is up there). marko's got it right: crampons and an axe, and you're fine. i doubt anyone has EVER rapped those slopes... but they HAVE been skied a few times. cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
