Details
Solid trench from trailhead to Chasm Lake. Worked my way up the loft couloir on the exposed rock. As the couloir narrows near the exit to the ramp, snow is waist to chest deep. Ended up going to far climbers left and climbed solid Class 3 rock and traversed over to the ramp. Route from ramp to loft has some snow but was able to follow the route. Ice axe and crampons are needed. Route was clear loft to summit.
