Billy Posted July 11, 2001 Posted July 11, 2001 Great route. Bring a set of nuts and a set of friends to #3. You may be on some snow on the approach, but then again you may be able to avoid it. Quote
erik Posted July 11, 2001 Posted July 11, 2001 i wouldnt bring much more then maybe a #2 cam, and if so bring hexes in stead, you can work around most of the hard spots and you can find lots of small placments. good route with some interesting rock, if you can do the traverse to ellinot as well, makes it a full day Quote
Drederek Posted July 12, 2001 Posted July 12, 2001 An excellent choice. The only real snow we saw in the middle of june was descending the regular route. There were some fixed slings to batman down from the nose. If the weather is good you shouldn't need pro or a rope. If its socked in I would take some. D Quote
bsirhc Posted July 12, 2001 Author Posted July 12, 2001 Just wondering if anyone has any info for the East Buttress route on Mt Washington. We have the guide just looking for any new info. -Chris Quote
mattp Posted July 12, 2001 Posted July 12, 2001 Are you guys saying that the E. Buttress is class three, or are you braver than the average bears? Or might you be referring to the ramp route up the middle of the face left of the East Buttress (a fun outing that truly is class three)? Quote
