Re: woah

Nope. We left it for you. ;)

Beckey recommends double ropes for the rappel.

Re: woah

Might just have to get up there sometime soon. I was going to ask you, is the glacier up there mellow? Soloable? passable in October?

Re: woah

I can't openly endorse crossing a glacier solo, but I will say that the glacier crossing was mellow considering how large it is. Fay Pullen went up there solo. I'm not sure how it would be in October though.

Re: woah

Cool thanks for the info....if it's still pretty big I won't solo it. I may try to get up there in October if I can swing it!
