CMG : Messages : 997-1041 of 1660

To be clear - this is on Wednesday Dec 3 (as in body of message), not on Tuesday Dec. 2 (as listed in the meeting notice). Only Touchstone members get in free; non-members need to pay, even if they are signed-in as a guest to the gym (or so says the person at the gym).

I was thinking about doing a climb of Split Mountain (14,058 ft) in
the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California.  Would any of you like to
join me for a winter ascent from Dec 27 to Dec 31?

Of those that have climbed it in the past, how long is the class 3
section? How easy or difficult do you anticipate this section with
snow and ice?

If you have some other adventure planned during this time, let me
know, maybe I can join you instead.

Happy Holidays,

Hey Adrian,

I did Split last March.  Class 3 section isn't that bad.  I'd be
interested in doing Split again but would rather do the St. Jean
couloir.  I'm thinking that it might take some time for the snow to
settle in that narrow colouir before venturing into it.

I'm planning to do White Mountain Peak from the east side as soon as
my eyes heal from surgery.  Let me know if you are interested in that.

Actually, the "old jeep road" climbs White Mtn Pk from the south, via Schulman, Patriarch, and Barcroft, and is gated about 3 km south of Barcroft Station. From the east side, there aren't any roads that reach up very far. Info about east side ascents could be gotten from Nancy Pallister if you can get a hold of her. Likewise, from the west there are no roads that reach up farther than the bottoms of the canyons. The west side ascents are quite spectacular, as is the restored area (cabins, etc) in the Jeffrey Mine Canyon behind the White Mtn Ranch.

I'll try to join part of the conference call tomorrow, but I'll be in
Truckee with my family over MLK weekend and I'd like to make one or
more day trips.  Let me know if any of these sound particularly
interesting.

- Mt Rose summit.  The snow at the top doesn't last long, so this is
more about reaching the summit than skiing.
- Peaks near Mt Rose: Tamarack, Relay, Galena chutes, etc.
- Tour from Brockway Summit to Martis Peak and over to the Placer
county highpoint on Mt Baldy. ~10 mi round trip, but it looks like
intermediate terrain.
- Castle Peak.  3rd class on top or skiing the north side.
- Mt Lola (I'm not sure what a winter visit entails)

Snowboards are fine (there are some flat areas at Mt Rose though) and
snowshoes might work for some of these.
