Ziff Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Climb: North Twin-West Ridge Date of Climb: 6/27/2005 Trip Report: Since my partner for this trip hurt his hand badly, I decided to go alone. Last time I climbed it was back in 1986 so it was time to return. The west ridge of North Twin is in great shape with no snow on the approach or the ridge. The descent down the north side was easy (I slid on my butt on the snow), no crampons needed but that will probably change soon. Ice axe was nice to have. A mountain bike sure speeded things up - left the car park at 5:00am and was back by 10:30am. Great day trip from Vancouver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziff Posted June 28, 2005 Author Share Posted June 28, 2005 I needed to get back for an afternoon party. clouds were threatening to rain so I had reason to move and the bike ride sure was fun on the way down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
