terrific.......trip report. well done!! quite an epic. It definitely would have taken me longer than a week to return to the Palisades after that - sounds like you and Barry got your money's worth.

Descent routeWhy the East Sill Couloir instead of the standard north side descent? That sounds considerably more difficult and exposed! Good job on completing the whole traverse, though, including persevering to get Sill! Way to go.
