Hello, my brother and I are planning on climbing Mt. Hood on July 6th this year. We haven't been exposed to too much cramponing in the past and we're planning on climbing without a guide up the South Side (Hogsback) route. I recently climbed the Cristo Couloir of Quandary Peak in Colorado and wanted to know if any climbers here have climbed both the Hogsback as well as the Cristo Couloir and could let me know how they compare in difficulty. Thanks!
