[MCR] Bugaboos July 13 - 15

Just returned from 3 days in the Bugaboos today, where we climbed the Kain route on Bugaboo Spire (essentially completely snow free if you stay on route) and the NW Ridge on Eastpost. Generally good travel conditions on the glacier (inspite of marginal overnight refreeze) and into the Bugaboo - Snowpatch Couloir, where the bergschrund is becoming visible as a sag on the climbers right side. Also, surprisingly, not very busy inspite of the nice weather of the past days: Only 12 guests at the Kain Hut and Applebee Camp appeared only a bit busier.

 

Cheers,

Jorg Wilz
