Mountaineering 3:27:30 [2] 7.9 km (2.3 kph) +656m
shoes: Boreal Zanskar Boots
We were planning on taking the Quarterdeck Glacier to access the main Bonar Glacier and Colin Todd Hut but a guide at French Ridge told us that the avalanche risk on the shorter Breakaway Glacier had eased off so we took that instead.
Cloudy morning but luckily no rain so snow conditions remained firm enough. Took a slight detour to scope out the access to The Ramp route which we'd be doing in the dark the next day. Thought we'd have the hut to ourselves when we arrived but 6 more people arrived via helicopter that afternoon.
Spectacular setting!
