Don’t do this it’s horrible and steep and just no. Go up the south ridge. But atm there isn’t enough snow, a lot of core shots and a walk off for some of it. We only got 300m up in 3hrs, and that’s only because the terrain was horrific, we were physically fine. The gully’s for Churchill look okayyy but idk how much snow you need for it, but the sides of the gully where bear. Shoutout to my fan in the visitor center, sorry no zip line across the river today.
