Traversing below The Notch on our failed winter attempt.

The last half of the route

Beautiful morning on Lamb's Slide.

My 11-year old son above Kiener's chimney.

Traversing Broadway--exposed, but never insecure. Nevertheless, a slip could send you plummeting.

"The most dangerous part of the climb" as mentioned in Andrew's route description.

Photos showing the white rock on top of the cairn marking the spot where one should start going straight down to pass the anchors. I did (2) two, (30) thirty meter rappels.... the second and final rappel is the longer of the two, and if you are confident in your climbing skills, you could probably work something out with a 50m rope, but I'd recommend just carrying a 60m to be safe.

Broadway, November 24.

More Broadway in Winter.

Just leaving Broadway and starting our first pitch.

Good shot of the Diamond just before Big Red came up. Most of the route is visible.

Dan in the 3rd cl. section.

Tim Slater begins the crux of the Broadway Traverse, 8/05. We approached using running shoes and one axe. We first tried chopping steps up Lamb's, but that was way to much work. The moat was a grovel but more efficient.

An unknown group of climbers leaves Lambs Slide and begins the traverse across Broadway to reach Kiener's. Early fall can be an excellent time to catch this route in fun conditions, with easy snow up Lambs Slide and across Broadway, then primarily warm and dry rock on the more sunny aspects of Kieners.

At the base of the Notch Couloir. I ascended the rock right of the snow.

Traverse above Alexander's Chimney area on 27 June 2015. Scary snow and muddy scree, but not difficult.
