Archive:Mid-week Ramble to Anniversary Glacier (Joffre-Matier Col)
Date
Friday, August 14th - Sunday, August 16th
The Plan
Day 1
Drive up and hike into Cerise Creek, and hike past the Hut, and camp beside the Anniversary Glacier.
Day 2
Venture onto the glacier, and if not too scary, go up to the Joffre-Matier Col. Explore around. Possibly climb something. Possibly even camp on the Col. This should be cooler and should involve a small amount of glacier travel. If you aren't experienced with glacier travel, don't worry. We will hold a miniature "glacier school" in situ. Not guaranteeing that we will get to the top of anything, but it's always a possibility... This should be "fairly low output" and "beginner friendly".
Day 3
Go home
Gear
We should bring a rope, crampons, an ice axe, couple of slings, also tents, sleeping bags, food, clothes, etc. If you are unfamiliar with any of this, talk to Roland.
