Mt Cline Alpine conditions

Climbing Conditions

I climbed Mt Cline over the weekend, a great mellow 1.5 day adventure. We had an overnight freeze Sat and travel was excellent mostly on snow, we did not use our crampons although I almost put them on.

I did observe one new deep slab avalanche on steeper terrain and would be cautious over the next few days with the forecast heat as there is still a lot of snow at 2500m and above.

Also if you are heading into the Cline lakes area, there was a cougar which we did not see but its tracks were fresh in the snow and only 50m from the lakes area.

See you in the hills,
