Fairweather Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Climb:Sloan-Glacier/Corkscrew Date of Climb:8/5/2006 Trip Report: With my friend Greg, brother Steve, and two of his friends - Todd and JB - we did a day trip up Sloan Saturday. River crossing is no problem. Glacier is crevassed and somewhat broken if you go diagonal/direct toward shelf, but I think the the upper/longer glacier crossing should stay safe and passable for some time. Beautiful summit views of the Monte Cristo Group. Congrats to the two guys I met finishing the west ridge climb. About 6 hrs 45 minutes up with 3 solid breaks for food/water/views. Gear Notes: Rope (Glacier) Ice Axe Sandals (River Crossing) Approach Notes: Quote
