The Trio with Kiefer  Sucess!

I remember this as a nice Colorado backcountry day with a cornice climb and talus surfing with Kiefer, not to mention a sweet drive in the Mercedes.

Lackawanna-French Loop  Sucess!

S Fork Lk TH and NW slopes route up Lackawanna. Then over to Casco and on to French via Frasco BM. Descent into basin to E of Casco-Frasco Col from about half way down to col from Frasco BM (loose red gravel; perfect for descending), and back down to TH. A wonderful ridge-y loop. Nothing beyond 2+.

Twice  Sucess!

10/27/07 - Nice solo fall hike, Roach's standard loop over Casco/French/Frasco trio.

1/19/14 - Via Echo Canyon. A wind scoured line provided an avy safe path to the Bull Hill/Casco saddle and we ran the ridge over Casco and then out and back to French (over Frasco both ways). Quite a long day in winter and the ridge was more interesting than I remembered.

FFC from South Halfmoon Creek TH  Sucess!

Great mid-way (sort of...) benchmark between French Mountain and Casco Peak. This route is a fine higher altitude day - plenty of training above timberline! Great views, even better company!
