Val Zephyr Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) Hi everyone! I'm planning to do the Torment-Forbidden Traverse this Friday through Sunday. Myself and another experienced climber will be taking a good friend of ours (with little experience beyond basic glacier and easy alpine). Our friend requested that the trip be "epic", I just don't want to actually epic Has anyone been up there lately that can give me a conditions update? I've done the traverse before in 2012. This time I'm planning to take the rock bypass to keep things more tame. I'm curious how troublesome the moat crossings are right now. Also is a single 60 or 70m rope sufficient? Or would we benefit from having 2 half ropes for the rappel off of Torment? My friend only gets out about once a year to climb, so I want to make sure that she has a fun and memorable trip. Thanks for any help! Val Edited August 19, 2015 by Val Zephyr Quote
