jhodlof, another question for you. Since the Dutchman takes you to the ridge above the saddle, if I wanted to hit Agassiz, afterwards should I hit straight down reaching the low point in the saddle or should I try to retrace my route coming up?
It's easiest to follow the rim edge and go through the saddle. It is the only way to go and lose the least amount of elevation.
Thanks. Last question, hopefully: I'll have in my car an ice axe, crampons, and snowshoes? Would all 3 be needed, or do I only need to bring the axe and snowshoes?
