My brother cancelled on our trip to the Bugs this year, so I'm looking for a partner. I'm a solid climber and I'm super fit. I'm from Pittsburgh and climb most weekends at Seneca, NRG, RRG. We could warm up at Yam or somewhere else nearby.
Objectives: NE Ridge Bugaboo, West Ridge Piegon, Becky C???
Ideally I'd like to go in late July before the Bugaboo Snowpack Col breaks down, but I'm flexible.
Just FYI, we've had a GIGANTIC snow year this year in the Canadian Rockies. So, you'll probably have more time this year than usual before the snowpack breaks down.
I'm planning to be in the Bugs for a week beginning July 14. I'm driving out to the Winds first and then up to the Bugs. We'll be a team of three when we get to the Bugs, so we could do well with a 4th. Send me an email if you're interested (mroyer4 at gmail) and I can give you more details. I'm down at the Red right now, heading home tomorrow, but might be able to get out for a trip to Seneca before I leave on July 1.
Jordan (or anyone else): is the snow going to be a problem by mid July? By problem I mean covering Applebee or leaving routes unclimbable? It seems like on a normal snow year things are just drying out at the beginning of July.
