Timed the snow conditions and bridge well
Like KathS describes in her pictures, the snow conditions were good, but the snow bridge was probably unstable the week after our climb. We used existing slings around a large rock for the rappel, and added another locking 'biner. The week before the snow was a bit soft and the bridge was solid. We lost about 500' after Lone Tree Pass, making it a 7000', 10 mi RT, 13 hr car-to-car day. Here's our route.
Went for a hike up this in April, 2015. We got to about the "flat" way-point" on the map I attached. Like the page says, with the road closed, add another 2.3 mi r/t and 400' of gain to the climb.
Route Climbed: Neiderprum Trail Date Climbed: Various
A steep trail. In late season the moat forces a fourth class scramble to the summit. As of 2004, there was a long piece of webbing anchored to a suspect rock for aid.
Route Climbed: Niederprum trail Date Climbed: July 28, 2004
What a workout! My fifth time on this mountain and I finally made the summit. Five hours up and four down. Mosquito bit, spider bit, scratched and bruised and ready to do it again tomorrow.
