| Comments: |
We went for Millen first, encountering some thick going and blowdown. From Millen, we dropped down a couple hundred feet north, in order to avoid the col, which has a reputation for being thick. From this point, we slabbed west, soon climbing onto the ridge and following it to the highpoint. The highpoint is marked in two places, about 150 feet apart.
We used snowshoes all day. In places there was about a foot of powder. This route also had some thick woods. |
