Posted: Wed May 09, 2012 6:14 am
Hi there,
My buddy and I are considering doing a high sierra climb next week...Wondering if anyone has first hand knowledge of conditions for the following routes?
North Buttress of Mt.Goode
NE ridge of Bear Creek Spire
East Ridge of Russel
East Arete of Mt.Humphreys
East face of Middle Pal
The twilight pillar on Norman Clyde peak
We would like to avoid serious snow and ice conditions, hopefully avoiding the need for ice axe and crampons altogether...
thanks.
