newmandan Posted April 27, 2001 Share Posted April 27, 2001 Anyone know what this route is like in a low-snow year (late May/June)? Will getting onto the Carbon be much different? Enough rockfall to want a hard-top tent, or does that depend more on temp than snow? Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vkaspar Posted April 27, 2001 Share Posted April 27, 2001 the carbon will open a little early, but should be ok through june. thumb is protected from rockfall, you can always dig into a drift or build a snow wall. ------------------ safe climbing! vkaspar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambone Posted May 1, 2001 Share Posted May 1, 2001 Just curious, What is a hard top tent? Is it a tent that protects you from rockfall? In 10 years of selling climbing stuff I have never heard of such a thing. Wouldn't it be kind of heavy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about an inflatable mattress that you could fit under the fly? Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
