d65k Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Don't feel bad about the Robson attempt. During a period of less than 10 years, I tried it three times. The three trips to the Ralph Forster Hut certainly were a good workout. Bad weather turned us around each time. It's a BIG mountain and very committing! Our last trip down from the hut was in the rain; quite precarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepires Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 you came back alive so it couldn't have been a "failure", more like a typical canadian rockies alpine trip. silverhorn is fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
