Mount Huber

Mount Huber

Taken from Victoria Ridge by other climbers of our mid station across the steeper ice section. Me on lead, my 2nd actually in the bergshrund. You have two options for ascent on Mount Huber. The traditional line is to the right avoiding the bergshrund below the summit. However, we chose to avoid loosing elevation, which was required to bypass several crevasses and made a line up the northeast face, crossing the bergshrund on the left via a snow bridge. Once across the bergshrund, the ground steepened and gave up ice for ice screw placements. Mount Huber, II, Yoho National Park, July, 2007
