Does anyone have any info on SilverStar? Is there snow between HWY 20 and the Burgundy Col? How many people can bivy at the col?Will a rope be needed to climb this peak? Per Jim and Becky...its not required, but some recent route info would be helpful!!!! How is the glacier?

We did it on Saturday of Memorial day weekend. The climbers trail was snow free up to the bench area just below burgundy col. From the bench up to burgundy col there was a mix of snow and scree. We didn't rope up for the glacier, it appeared in good shape, and we couldn't see any holes. The 3rd class scramble to the summit block is hard to find, but any alternative harder scrambling section is short and I would doubt you'd need a rope for that either, depending on your comfort level. Awesome north cascade views, enjoy yourself.

Hope this helps
