Logan from the NE


Description 

The Mount Logan massif is the biggest chunk of rock, snow and ice on earth. It sits inside Kluane NP in the Yukon and boarders Wrangell-St. Elias NP in SE Alaska. Although Canada's highest peak, don't expect the same crowds you'd find on Denali and sometimes, a combination of few climbers and horrid weather will make for summit totals to be as low as 2 in a given year.


Getting There 

For the East Ridge, the only option (unfortunately) is Andy Williams' operation in Silver City/Kluane Lake. For the King's Trench, your options are Paul Claus in Yakutat or Andy Williams.
