Description
Margarita 240m, III, WI3+ Mt. Field YNP 7-Mar-2008
FA: Fraser Sprigings & Krissy Boucher March 6, 2008
Located in Yoho National Park on Mount Field, this south facing climb can be seen from the highway as you turn onto Yoho Valley Road. Park almost immediately as the road turns to the right. Walk up the first significant gulley to the left of the avalanche slope leading to Silk Tassel. The approach takes 30min.
Climb a 60m pitch of WI2-3 to two pitons located on the right rock wall. Walk up the snow for 60m to where the gulley pinches. A short WI2 pitch will lead you to the crux pitch. A sultry 60m WI3+ pitch takes you to the top of the climb.
Descent: Rappel the route.
