the rock route? in winter? pm me

You mean this rock route?

mountainproject.com/v/north…

I have seen several parties starting up this in crampons, its certainly done. I dont think that there is much ice on the route, so winter beta would be the same as above plus the winter weather considerations.

I have seen people start via cracks on a steep right facing wall just below the first belay of Pinnacle Gully, that doesn't exactly match the route description above.

sent u a pm

Resurrecting this thread. Did you end up doing it? If so, mind sharing any beta (anyone else has any beta for that matter)? Planning to do Pinnacle Gully and a few of the other ice climbs, but interested in the buttress as well afterwards

its completely scratched to shit so assuming it gets done a lot in winter.

Good to know - I didn't want to use crampons on sth that's not already scratched
