Trip Description

Saturday: Hike to the lake and camp for the night.

Sunday: Alpine start, ascend via Wedgemont Glacier. Crevasse is a concern as the crevasses on Wedge are bigger, and the snowpack is currently thin. We will probe as we go if needed. The NE Arete crux is ~45 degree with high exposure. We didn't find any recent trip reports, so we are unsure about the conditions up there. We will definitely turn back if we spot any major concerns as we ascend. It's more of an exploratory trip, so please don't have your expectations too high.

I'll bring my skis, while my partner will bring his snowshoes. The skiing quality will probably be 0/10. You can choose your team freely haha.

~20km, 2200m elevation gain
