*** As per COC's Safety Policy, a rock climbing helmet is required for this scramble. No helmet = no event ***
Distance: 9.1km round trip We will likely follow Kane's recommended route up the avalanche gully, traversing right to the ridge and gaining the summit. Once on the summit we will be treated to good views of the scramble routes for Stanley Peak and Mount Ball. Also visible are the Rockwall, Assiniboine, Deltaform and the Goodsirs. While the coordinator likes to take long breaks at the summit (if conditions permit), we will be moving at a STEADY MODERATE pace. For your own safety and for the enjoyment of the group, if you move at a slower pace or like to take frequent breaks, then this event is not for you. The coordinator will be checking your event history. Please note that the coordinator has not done this trip before. Please allow time/patience for unforeseen circumstances. References:
