Climbed Flick/Jager route (Middle rib W face) yesterday. The
bush bash after the slippery log creek crossing was a typical Selkirk rain
forest experience. (Wear your devils club chaps and carry a chainsaw) Approach
gully melting out and becoming undermined by the creek. The route was in excellent
condition. Descended down SW ridge to the narrow couloir in the col. ( 10 m.
rap in and still snow to the base of the gully. ) The top half of Sir
Donald looked fairly snowy on the N face. Tupper looked dry and the approach
couloirs on the S face still appeared reasonable.
