chris Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 So I've thumbed through my copy of McLane's Alpine Select, but I'm never around in the summertime. What routes or peaks listed are also good winter objectives? Quote
G-spotter Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Whatever doesn't have massive huge avalanche hazard or six feet of elephant snot drowning the climbing is usually good. Quote
chris Posted December 1, 2006 Author Posted December 1, 2006 That's great G, but I was hoping you'd be a little more specific... Quote
G-spotter Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 When the avalanche hazard is low it is ALL GOOD  But a shortlist looks something like: Howe Sound/Squamish  North Ramp Harvey NE Butt/N Face West Lion W Face Habrich South Ridge Atwell Blackcomb stuff Joffre Group Tricouni N Ridge **** Fraser Valley - north side Golden Ears Group  *** Fraser Valley south side Cheam Range - Cheam NF, Lady NE side, Welch, Foley N sides, Welch S Ridge  *** Chilliwack Valley Slesse - various rtes Rexford Nesakwatch Spires - North Ridges McGuire - NW Ridge CBP - standard rte  *** Past Hope Sumallo cirque Outram Needle Yak   Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Some short list. Got a sled for Sumallo? (I might ) What about the Black Tusk? Quote
jordop Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Some short list. Got a sled for Sumallo? (I might ) What about the Black Tusk? You don't need a sled for Sumallo, just some skis. Come on its not that far! Â You WOULD want one for the Tusk though. Though I don't know why you would want to go after it in the winter Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 You don't need a sled for Sumallo, just some skis. Come on its not that far! Â You would if you plan on skiing in with your grandpa, or someone around his age. Quote
G-spotter Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Have you considered sitting him on a crazy carpet and towing Quote
jordop Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Godamn is he still trying to get in there? Quote
