spotly Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 Anyone know what the Chockstone Couloir route is looking like now as far as snow - experienced guess for this time of year? Gear recommendations? Thanks - Tim Quote
GP3 Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 We climbed it 2 weeks ago, the snow was in pretty good shape and the chockstone was a grovel at best, with the move out and over the stone about 5.6ish. My climbing partner took off his crampons for the chockstone, but I climbed it with mine on. We didn't see any signs of any other climbers having climbed it earlier this year. With this heat, the snow will be going fast. I have pics posted at : www.crappyclimbers.com (my shameless self advertisement) GP Quote
spotly Posted July 6, 2007 Author Posted July 6, 2007 Thanks GP. Nice pics. We were thinking of descending down through the tarn then to the trail. I hate those ball bearing on the slabs and through that avi chute Quote
