jesselillis Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Looking to climb Chianti and Burgundy this week. Anyone know if there is water available in the col? Ice ax/crampons necessary this time of year? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajpederson Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 We were up there a couple weeks ago. There was a little snow on the back side of the col but it looked pretty solid. There is the water down at the bench around 6500 ft. on the way in that's there year round. Here's a link to a pic of the back side of the col. I'm sure its melted out some more since we were up there. https://picasaweb.google.com/114475309056868243474/SilverStarAttempt939511#5649031360507781538 A couple of the people with us went over the col and headed towards Silverstar and were happy to have their crampons and axes.
