[MCR] Rockies: Mt MacArthur

We climbed Mt MacArthur from the Stanley Mitchell hut today. There is 40-60 cm of snow that has accumulated on the glacier from the weekly snowstorms we’ve been having since late July. Heavy trailbreaking. On the summit ridge it had drifted even deeper and advanced trenching technique was required to get to the top.
