NW Face of Little Bear in Winter
Has anybody done this route in winter?

Looks like some yummy mixed goodness. I imagine the climbing could be quite variable depending on conditions. The ridge could be interesting too.

at least the ridge had sunshine, although a chilly bitch. The face is all shade.
You might find a report of Mad/Dad Mike doing the traverse in winter, I think he went up the hourglass however.

Re: NW Face of Little Bear in Winter
Not really in winter but in May of this year. I agree that this peak is best done when covered in snow. It's much safer.
