Mt. Maude/7 Fingered Jack

[indigosage]

Anyone know what the snow level and conditions are like on the standard scramble routes on Mt. Maude/7 Fingered Jack at the moment? Looking to head up there this weekend and wondering if I should take an ice ax and crampons.

We were up there on 6/27-6/28.

 

7FJ no ice axe or crampons required, unless you head up the quicker gully route, then you will need both.

 

Maude - crampons were required for a small snow patch at the summit. I was on the summit at 6:30am, if you get up there later in the day it may be soft enough to get up without them.
