Winter Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 (edited) Climb: Prusik Peak-South Face Date of Climb: 7/10/2006 Trip Report: Jeff Alzner and I clmbed the South Face of Prusik on Sunday. A very fun route. Not much to add from all the other TRs on the site. I think we did it in 5 pitches and took about 5-5.5 hours from camp-to-camp. I think you could run the first pitch to the top tree and the second to right under the chock stone, the third to the top of the squeeze and the 4th to the summit. We had an extra in there somewhere - Jeff traversed out left at the top of the first pitch and then came into the trees from the left - fun variation. Ahh the misery of the hike out Snow Creek - you know you've been there. There's SCW ... still there ... not there yet ... getting close ... almost there ... there's the road ... still there ... etc etc etc. Obligatory Goat Shots From the Asgard Slog In the Lakes Eye Candy And the Route Gear Notes: Took the #4. Probably worth hauling it up there. Approach Notes: Came up over Asgard - still lots of snow in the lakes. Freaking beuatiful!!! Water everywhere.

olyclimber Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 I saw that set of goats up there, but they saw the gleam in my eye and were off before I could get my camera out. Purty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountaingirlBC Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 nice job! I've gone out Snow once and will NEVER do it again. It's freakin awful. The worst part is that you can see the damn car for the last 5 miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtveld Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Isn't that first hand crack right off the ground just the sweetest start?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattp Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 And that last one, right to the summit is the sweetest finish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertm Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Nice going... I have done the other S. Face route and thought the offwidth/chimney was a grunt. It sounds like there is nothing that wide on this route? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
