Participant Information

I have reservations for two tent pads at Wedgemount on July 22. 

On Tuesday we will hike up to Wedegemount Lake and set camp. Wednesday we will hike up to Mt Cook, then follow the exposed ridgeline over to Weart. You can check out a trip report here: https://climberkyle.com/2022/08/20/armchair-traverse/

This is a difficult scramble and only open to members with significant climbing / scrambling experience who are comfortable moving unroped in 4th class terrain. I will arrange for a pre-trip hike up the Flint or Taint on Grouse prior to the trip date to ensure group compatibility.

I expect to bring ice axes and helmets, plus usual overnight camping gear.
