Northeast Chutes of Brokeoff Mountain/Lassen NP - any beta?

by Jesus Malverde » Tue Nov 16, 2010 11:15 pm

Hi folks,
I'm going to be in California this winter and am considering a climb of Brokeoff Mountain (Lassen NP) via the northeast chutes.
Yes, I'm aware of avalanche/cornice/rockfall danger. Has anyone out there climbed up (or skied down) those couloirs in Jan/Feb/Mar? Any beta? Any fun?

Thanks for any info!
