rockgirl77 Posted July 5, 2005 Posted July 5, 2005 Am doing Stuart via the West Ridge this weekend...Anyone been up there recently? Any beta? Thanks! Quote
fenderfour Posted July 5, 2005 Posted July 5, 2005 I made it to the entrance gulley. A member of my party wasn't feeling well, so we turned back. The route and the descent path look almost entirely snow-free. There may be a few small patches hiding in the shade. The entire basin was bug-free. Quote
MCash Posted July 5, 2005 Posted July 5, 2005 The top of the Cascadian still has some snow. There are still quite a few steep snowpaths on the West Ridge to be crossed. We saw a party of three coming up on Sunday from the North Ridge. Quote
hacim Posted July 6, 2005 Posted July 6, 2005 We climbed it Sunday. There was some snow at the top of gullies and an exposed section to cross below the west horn. We were in tennis shoes and the cooler weather saturday night made it necessary to chop steps for a couple sections. Quote
