asmrzThird Pillar in WINTER ?

Voted 10/10

The idea of climbing this Regular Route in Winter never saw us succeeding, but (at least in my mind) it is an interesting proposition. The route can be approached on skis from the low bench at the entrance to Lee Vining Canyon or via the long ski over Tioga Pass and the Glacier Canyon. The idea (in the late 80s) never got very far past planning stages for Miguel Carmona and me, but maybe somebody young reading this today might find the idea interesting. The Pillar faces mostly EAST and gets some sun in mid winter. The protection posibilities on the route would be ok even in winter time. Just a thought...
