Regional discussion and conditions reports for the Northern Rockies. Please post partners requests and trip plans in the Northern Rockies Climbing Partners section.
Have some trips planned in the next two weeks. Does anyone have beta on snow over Sundance pass, dawson/pitamakan pass loop, or gunsight pass? Just curious if axe and/or crampons are needed for any of these.
Trail status report for Gunsight Pass indeed sounds sketchy... however, I've heard that the Dawson-Pitamaken loop is safely passable. I believe some snow will be encountered, but it can either be safely bypassed or easily negotiated (snow conditions permitting, of course).
