Bosterson Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Trip: Hood - Old Chute Date: 3/31/2013 Trip Report: The Old Chute is ice-free after the nice weather we've had. There's a good staircase up at the top, though lower on the chute it's kinda slushy and goopy. The snow was so soft even before the light hit it that you can just walk down it without downclimbing. Dawn summit light Going down the top of the Chute Cutoff path over to the top of the Hogsback - easier walking, might be less safe once the sun hits it. Gear Notes: Ice axe, crampons, helmet. Approach Notes: Walking up the sno-cat tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
