colt45 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Trip: Bugaboos - B-C, Cooper-Kor, etc. Date: 7/23/2007 Trip Report: After our first trip to the Bugaboos last year, Yuko and I were psyched to return. Incredibly, we had 9 consecutive days of perfect weather. Here's a brief overview: Mon: Drive up & hike to Applebee Tues: Hike to East Creek Wed: Beckey-Chouinard (20p 5.10) Thurs: Surf's Up (9p 5.9). Hike to Applebee. Fri: NW Ridge Eastpost Spire (4th class) Sat: Sunshine Crack (11p 5.11-) Sun: Paddle Flake Direct (6p 5.10). Go to car for spare rope. Mon: Rest day in camp. Tues: Cooper-Kor (18p 5.9 A0) Wed: Snowpatch Route (19p 5.8) Thurs: Hike out & drive back to Seattle. As if the impeccable granite and perfect weather were not enough, additional excitement during the trip included our rope getting a core shot exactly at the middle mark, and a near-accident when one falling climber grabbed the lead rope of another climber. A long trip report with photos is here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
