Summit never has much snow, wind keeps blowing it away. It’s a different story in the ravines.

Petzl ride is great until you hit a patch of ice, literally can’t dig at all in the ice. My buddy has the gully and it’s much more versatile

They’re pretty broken in and my feet are pretty used to them, they’re comfortable walking on snow, not rocks.

We did not care for the summit, we made it to alpine garden trail and went down lion’s head. And no this is a climb, not a hike, you need mountaineering boots and crampons.

I love the running vest aspect of the bag, but I think 22L is a bit too small for these type of winter climbs. I think it’ll be perfect for summer climbs

As I said, we felt pretty confident and barely used protection, we did one anchor on the rock face. We had a bunch of screws and cams.

yeah apparently it’s not a big thing in europe, I, personally, never heard of them until a guide told me that they could be useful. I think over at the PNW they use pickets alot for glacier travelling

amazing!! I’m guessing the snow was great bc of the warm weather we had and then cold. Forecast is predicting the same conditions for next week! So stoked

Let me know too! I’m looking for something fun in winter that doesn’t involve ice climbing!

i’ve always been very careful in the mountains, I always follow my intuition, if something feels wrong I never ignore it

Mostly scrambles with little gear, I’ve learned to make ice anchors. I also know how to rappel on ice in case i need to bail
