Bigtree Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I'm planning to head to the Rockies tomorrow for a week of climbing. Was hoping with the low snow this past winter that Mt. Sir Donald might be in. Would appreciate some feedback on observed conditions/snow level if you've driven through Rogers Pass in last week or two. Thanks.

ilias Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Anyone have a more recent update on the conditions? Or know any websites that have conditions for mountains in that part of BC typically posted? Considering hitting up Sir Donald in a week or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigtree Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the pic G-spotter. Ilias, we made an attempt Saturday June 13. Got to the Uto/Sir Donald col but stopped there due to unfavourable conditions. Should be fine with a couple of more weeks of sun/warm temps. Bridges are all in and the approach was very straightforward. We'll be heading back for another go in mid August. Here's what it looked like from the col June 13...
