Swiss Arete
Jun 24, 2023 · Lead. W / Big Bad Joe Brown… Full on spring conditions… Snow above 10k’ … some snow on the route …Ascended from glacier to notch… then proceeded to L shaped couloir which was filled in w snow…. Scrambled to base of route and roped up … climbing was easy’ish and would hae felt comfortable soloing all but a handful of moves.. (ie the step around corner and chimney … where a fall would be surely fatal.) . Descended via 3rd/4th class to the North west where we found a rock carrin and a rap station . We then proceeded to start rapping into the NW couloir on a 70m 8.5mm . After 2 rappels both of which had rap stations w pre existing tat all that was left were tracks from another climber who looked like he / she traversed over to the notch the L shaped coulior . Rather than following the exposed traverse where a fall would be fatal we elected to set up 2 more rap stations back down to the NW couloir ( on the opposite side of the L shaped Cooly) …. Then we started the long and tiring descent down the NW Couloir back to the glacier . The last hurdle was crossing the shrund which was 10’ approx and was passed on the climbers right side via a snow bridge …. Great climb…
