Route: South Face Posted On: 2020-10-01, By: desertdog Info: Completely dry. The views from this summit are outstanding! FR579 is in good shape, but it will take an hour plus to get to the TH. |

Route: Straight up Posted On: 2019-06-26, By: Jakomait Info: Snow makes for perfect conditions and superhighway couloirs. Linked Rolling Mtn to Grizzly to San Miguel then finished the loop through Ice Lake. Surprised how easy the passage was even in the afternoon. |

Route: From S Mineral Posted On: 2018-07-31, By: Marmot72 Info: From camp by Bandora mine, up to Hope pass, up V9, down the grungy horrid loose east slope into cascade basin, elk trails to then contour Grizzly's east slope, off Grizzly SW corner to 12.4, up to V10, then descent into the narrow north basin and a nice elk trail that ðŸ-lined across the upper Cascade basin. Air was clear but smelled a bit smoky-the next day I awoke coughing. |

Route: Standard Posted On: 2018-07-21, By: illusion7il Info: No summit register. Know your route, as there no carins. Didn't feel like driving the long cascade rd, so I took the rico-silverton trail to the CT over rolling pass. When I reached the basin I joined the standard south gully route to the top. Weather was intresting. On the return to rolling pass, I had to wait over an hour at 12K at treeline for a storm to pass. At least I had a front row seat for the fireworks, all while getting pounded by hail. All the stream crossings turned into rivers. |
