joe_catellani Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 Climb: Mt Stuart-Ice Cliff Glacier Date of Climb: 6/21/2006 Trip Report: Climbed rte in 7.5hrs with Paul Cornett. had a good freeze. no SFOs (significant falling objects) observed. getting past ice cliff on east edge was cruise. crossing bergshrund to upper couloir was spicy snice. little bit o mixed in couloir. cornice easy. awesome alpine setting. descent: jumped Sherpa bergshurund altho could bypass on either side. Gear Notes: no pickets, no regrets 4 pins, more LAs & bugaboos wooda been better. more of smallest cams would have been nice 4 screws enuf Approach Notes: first 1/2 mile of mteers creek rte could use some work. don't need a permit if bivy above 5600', just day use pass for each day Quote
