origin_ing Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) Trip: East Wilmans Spire - Beckey/Stanely Date: 8/3/2013 Trip Report: Climbed East Wilmans Spire with Taylor on Saturday 8/3. We both found this route highly enjoyable. The snow gully currently has a moat that can be bypassed by scrambling on the rocks to the left. We did the rock section in two pitches using a 70m rope. The approach up the scree slope. Might be easier in the spring with snow cover. The Gully. This is near the moat. There is a sketchy rap station off this ledge we used. Taylor on the honda civic size summit. The anchors are still solid, albeit messy. Taylor rappin off the summit. Gear Notes: Pro to 2inches (smaller cams helpful), ice axe + ice tool (very helpful), crampons. Approach Notes: Monte Cristo > Glacier Basin Trail > Ascend the obvious scree hillside.
