Hector Winter Ascent
Peter Valchev and I skied to the summit col in not the best of visibility. Used crampons for the summit finish. At times all we could see was each other. Hector gets a lot of weather this time of year. Most people ski Hector later, i.e. May. We had our issues with the weather, but at the end made a fast ski descent. Decent powder down the glacier, little hard and windswept after that. Cheers.
