Bugs in September

[peas]

Does anyone have first hand experience with Bugaboos weather in mid September? I'm planning on heading there this year and would like any input I can get.

fresh snow, cold.

you might want to wear more than you're wearing on your glacier peak summit shot.

Yep. still climbed East Post and Lion's Way, but it was like winter up there. Some guys made it up the Kain route when we were there. Stay in the hut if going that late! more info

hmmm. wrong answers. I was hoping for more along the lines of "actually better than July and August, despite what the guide book and common sense say".

I know that last September was a stellar month in the Bugaboos, with some first ascents going up and clear blue skies -- but I also know that's VERY UNUSUAL.
