missc Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Anyone know what the conditions are like on Hell's Highway? I saw the picture posted a couple weeks ago. It looked bad, but still doable. We were hoping to make an attempt later this week and are wondering if we should pick another route. Thanks! Quote
kurthicks Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 the north face was strafed by rockfall all day monday and tuesday. no go in my opinion. Quote
missc Posted September 10, 2009 Author Posted September 10, 2009 Thanks - we chose the sulphide route instead and got the storm on Thurs. We took pictures of the route from Artists Point and looks in bad shape. Quote
Colin Posted September 12, 2009 Posted September 12, 2009 Would you mind posting those pictures of Hell's Highway? I'm thinking of heading up the Fischer Chimney's on Sunday, and it would be great to see a photo of Hell's Highway beforehand. I don't mind having to climb some steep ice, but a glacier-width crevasse 20ft. wide would be annoying... Quote
