8/20/2024 Route: N face ledge Posted On: 8/21/2024, By: SnowAlien Info: Approached from the Pitkin drainage. Plenty of water sources to refill water bottles, including some snow patches. Steep passes off Partners ridge are passable in both directions. Register in good shape, not many entries. Mosquitos are tame, wildflowers still blooming. We took the steep grassy upper ramp on R face, it pinches down in a spot or too, some water on the ledge after recent rains. |
