Arc Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 I have done it 4 times in the winter, and have no beta on it apart from : Make sure you bring a bottle of 151 or equivalent. Be absolutely sure your tent door faces South. At 12K and about 244deg NNW from the Fingers general high camp you will find a rock cairn approximately 3.75 ft tall, LEAVE IT ALONE, and I say again LEAVE IT ALONE and do not open, remove or disturb any rocks on this pile. Beta on the Cairn is only know by 2 people, myself, and Mike Gauthier, which is of no concern to you what is under those rocks....Thanks The wind always whips around the Thumb route several knots stronger, so if you have to pee, face the left. You get great phone reception from the Finger. This is all I can say for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
