Strong Day
Great job on Red. What other winter expeditions do you have planned to the Gores?

Re: Strong Day
Thank you. My number one goal this winter just so happens to a winter ascent of the Grand Traverse. So after the Christmas and New Years shenanigans are done with, it's on!
Other than that, Snow Peak's East Ridge, Outpost Peak, and The Partners massif look like pretty fun winter outings. Gotta love that I-70 access. Do you have any yourself?

Re: Strong Day
Grand Traverse would be a good winter trip. I skied it this spring and it was great then too. A couple of my friends and I want to get up Outpost this winter. Let me know when you're headed there if you want any partners.
I was actually referring to the route "The Grand Traverse." It is the one from North Traverse Peak to Grand Traverse Peak. I was on Valhalla in early May of this year and Grand Traverse Peak sure did look like a good ski! Envious...
When I do Outpost I will for sure let you know. Please do the same for me if you and your friends decide to do it first.
Wow, what route did you do on Uneva that took 3 days? Must've been Gore Creek eh?
I know what you mean. It's a good thing that my memory tends to forget all the unsavory details after a while. For me the most memorable trips are the ones that pushed me wayyy out of my comfort zone. Good times!
