Kain Face View- Camp before the saddle- 1950's
Resplendent from Robson-Resplendent ridge. rock was mostly class 3 with occasional class 4 moves
Gargoyles-a-plenty. Down climbing slopes below the summit. These slopes are not on the route proper!
Mt Robson from Mt Resplendent August 1990.<br> note how ice bulge on Kain Face has fallen off but SE face is more broken than Ed Cooper photo. The SE face was much more broken in 2008 http://www.pbase.com/nolock/image/97234433/large

Ed Cooper's Photo<br> Canadian Alpine Journal, 1973<br> <br> Cooper was a pioneering climber and photographer. It is probable that the route suggestion was drawn in by the CAJ editor.<br> <br> A good title might be:<br> "The Safest Way To Climb Robson".<br> <br> Note the absence of any suggestion of climbing the icefall via the "Mousetrap".
Near the ice fall at the Robson/Resplendent col.
Camp near the Extinguisher, the location the chopper dropped us off and picked us up. I have heard the climb up from Berg Lake is a killer and while Suspected Alpine Climbs of the Rockies says it one day from Berg Lake to the Dome, guides tell me it is one long and hard day from Berg Lake to here.
