jrmycarr Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I was wondering if anyone has climbed this in the last couple of weeks and what the route was like. Thanks for the input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catbirdseat Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 It's getting a bit late in the season to climb Cooper Spur, but then, it's been a cool spring. What say you, Iain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 iain don't do the cooper spur, i seem to recall  i bet the spur will remain a viable option up the mountain for a couple more weeks at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iain Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I'm sure it is still quite climbable. Get up and at 'em early. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catbirdseat Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Like really early. Missiles start coming down as soon as the rising sun hits it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iain Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Missiles start coming down as soon as the rising sun hits it. Â Climbers seem to as well. It's probably safer to ski down than to walk down in late spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrmycarr Posted June 14, 2005 Author Share Posted June 14, 2005 Thanks for the input. I am thinking of doing it this weekend, although I will probably come down via the sunshine route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iain Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Not a bad idea. You can always go up sunshine too, if the spur looks gross from the moraine. It is longer, but perhaps more interesting (though they are both pretty sloggy). It would be nice if you could report back on coverage of snowdome etc for the skiers. Have fun.
