| Not on the same level as the Northeast Ridge of Bugaboo or the West Ridge of Pigeon, but still a fun, classic route. We belayed about four pitches and simulclimbed the rest on a perfect weather day. On one of the upper pitches I went for the dike on the face instead of the offwidth - we agreed it was the funnest pitch on the route. Ended up hanging out on the summit for 3hrs! Rapped down the Kraus-McCarthy. | |

| Via the Snowpatch Route with Robert and Mark. We did a fair bit of simul-climbing. We did simul-raps on the way down. Then we did an alternate descent back to the hut instead of the usual Pigeon Col. Really fun! | |

| SW Corner. Drove to the Bugs in a VW in a single 36-hour push from San Francisco. | |

| Not the most breathtaking position, but a great climb all the same. We topped out with a full on electrical storm bearing down. Needless to say the we made a hasty retreat. | |

| Upper pitches are nice cracks in a stellar position. The view from the summit couldn't be better. What a summit! By the way, making 60m raps will not get you down the Kraus-Mcarthey any faster. We had to reclimb a pitch to get a rope unstuck... | |
