Trip Description

 

Amazing 360 degrees v at the top and  in the alpine!

The trail to Hannegan Pass is easy, but a bit long, from the pass to the peak we will travel on snow, so microspikes, gaiters/waterproof boots and ice axe are mandatory!

You have to understand that we will travel for a short period of time on a glacier, but it is a very benign one(think Blackcomb glacier) without open crevasses at this time of the year. Nevertheless, you must be comfortable with that!

Please make sure you are able to enter the US and Canada without a visa and such, otherwise expect to drive on your own and meet us near the trailhead.
