Trip Description

We'll be accessing the East Ridge route via the logging roads up Chance Creek on the south side of Tricouni. If we get all the way up the logging road, we'll have a short hike in and it should only take us about 2 hours to get the base of the route. If the road is in bad shape, we may have to hike for longer. The route itself is mostly 3rd class with some 4th class near the top. We'll descend via another route that's only 3rd class.
 
If you want to come on this trip I need to get the following information from you:
  • Your contact phone number(s)
  • Do you have a 4WD vehicle (needed for the logging road) and if so, how many passengers can you take?
  • What area of town you live in (in case people need rides to St. David's)?
  • Can you bring a rope and if so, what size is it? (Tony and I will probably climb using a doubled half rope to save weight)
  • Can you bring a light rack?
  • A description of your mountaineering experience.
  • Are you comfortable leading 4th class in the mountains or would you only want to second the route? If you're not comfortable leading, I'll only be able to confirm your participation if I can find someone to climb with you.

At a minimum you will need all the following mountaineering gear:

  • harness
  • helmet
  • a daisy chain and biner for a personal anchor
  • an ice axe
