Re: .

Yeah, the nice thing about these ridge climbs is that the climbing is easy, and you have a lot of time to soak in the views! Thanks for the comment

Re: Looks like

Definitely don't need rock shoes on it... I hiked in and did it in my approach shoes, Dow carried his light boots. Early season would want boots and possibly crampons... Thanks Martin, you should go do it as you are close!

Great Pic!

I've went to do this a couple of times, but have never had the weather. Still would like to some day. Cheers!

Re: Great Pic!

Thanks. And yeah, it's worth trying again... It's even doable in 1 day (a long one of course), if you go light and fast... to ensure weather doesn't change on you if you've a good window.
