cfire Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Trip: Dragontail - Another Triple C report Date: 6/2/2012 Trip Report: Kyle and I climbed TC Sunday. Just thought I'd post a few pics to compare to the report from last week. We took 12 1/2 hours car to car. The route has maybe a few days left before it becomes scary. About a 50ft scramble to get into the hidden couloir. The runnels were bare, so we did a 5.8ish climb up the arete to bypass the lower entrance to the 2nd couloir. The traverse into the 3rd couloir was bare as well and required a 30-40ft traverse of rotten rock. The snow in all 3 couloirs was soft and deep step kicking made for slower going. The glissade down Asgard was perfect, the way around the lake arduous. The dry runnels Top of rock bypass 1st to 2nd couloir Final summit slog All in all a great day out. TC in June is a bonus. Take rock gear and get there quick. And if somebody else is on the route, run! Gear Notes: Alpine rack. Didn't use any pins. Pickets useless in mush.
