Brian_Moran Posted August 26, 2002 Share Posted August 26, 2002 Looking to do the North Face of Buckner this weekend. Has anyone been on the route in the last 7 days? If so, how was crossing the Boston Glacier? Was the route melted out? Did you do the face or coulior? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Climzalot Posted August 26, 2002 Share Posted August 26, 2002 A friend of mine climbed it 4 days ago and reported good/straightforward conditions on the Boston Glacier. They traversed from Sahale over to Boston Peak and down and said this way was quite a bit better than the Sharkfin Col approach. A little loose rock on Boston was the only unpleasant part. The face is definitely in late season condition but they were able to move around obstacles without too much dificulty. Hope this helps somewhat, sorry for the 2nd hand info. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
