Ellingwood from Zapata Falls TH

Post by randalmartin »

Planning to go up Ellingwood and Blanca Saturday from the Zapata Falls TH. Anyone been up this route recently? Curious if the C2 Couloir is still holding snow or not.

Zero snow in C2. There were two tiny, insignificant patches in C2 a month ago when I was there.

How long did it take you to do both peaks if you were able to do them today? I may be doing both in a month-ish.
