Colin Range Jasper
National Park:
Over the the past week
the Colin Range dried up allowing for ascents of Guides Route on
Morro Peak, Cadot Crack and Mount Colin's SW Face Dir. We found all
routes were dry with only some snow patches left dripping in the sun
that didn't effect our lines.
Mount
Colin: South-West
Face Direct
The approach trail was
improved this summer up to the ACC Colin Hut thanks to Peter Ammon
which was much appreciated. Water can still be found running strong
in the creek next to the Hut. On the route we came across the crux
pitch (2nd last pitch-slab move) to no longer have a piton to protect
the crux move off the belay. So just a heads up if your heading up
there, A number 3 or 4 Lost Arrow would do the trick.
