JDCH Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Howdy- Looking to take advantage of the fine weather that is coming up this weekend for a potential early season ascent with some buddies. Anyone been up that way and take a gander at the ingraham direct? Is it in? How's the snowpack? Anything I should be concerned about? Muchas gracias. James. Quote
Dchromey Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 I was up there in January and everyone coming down from the summit mentioned that it was more broken up than usual. That was January and its almost May. Ill keep digging Darren Quote
CascadeClimber Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 I came down it in January. It was only passable on the far southern edge, directly under Gib Rock. I also spoke to a guide who tried to take a group up the middle of it in March and was unable to find a route. His assessment was that it probably would not be a viable route this year. Of course all it takes is some shifting in the icefall and everything changes. Quote
jmk Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Call rmi guides and ask they will let you know which route is the best right now Quote
