I might spend a longer time in Canada soon. This one could make my ski descent wish list. What a face! Do you know whether there are many crevasses in the lower part of the face?
Nice shot!

Cheers,

	Hasn't voted	TA, the bergshrund is significant...otherwise not horribly broken up on the face itself, but down below it is...I know of no one who has skied it to date. The normal descent route is the right hand ridge. Look me up when you get here, cheers.

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know."" --Rene Daumal
