The route can be busy, especially when the day climbers arrive. Rope, and any other specialized gear is not necessary for Summer. In Winter, you will need a full compliment of gear from crampons and ice axes to avalanche beacons and possibly a satellite phone. Its typically a 3 day, 2 night climb in winter. | I did the Mountaineer's Route as an overnight backpacking trip that started on 8/31. I summited on 9/1, but the elevation will be counted in one day on 8/31. I spent the night sleeping under the stars under some cold and (early on) windy conditions at Iceberg Lake. Fantastic display of stars up high under pretty dark conditions. New moon. Descended alone on 9/1.
Fantastic hike with incredible scenery. |
