Standard cruise in to Circlet Lake
from Raven Lodge. 5cm of new snow last night, warm temps today and
snow flurries. Ski Pen 2-3cm.
Left the lodge at noon, made camp at
4:15pm, took a 1/2 hour break on route. Decided to stop just above
Circlet Lake because of the avalanche terrain to be crossed ascending
to the Mt. Albert-Edward ridge, a few short, steep slopes. Anyways,
I will need to stop tomorrow at the Mt. Frink – Mt. George V col to
be able to ascend the exposed avalanche terrain on the north face of
Mt. George V early in the morning. The weather forecast for the week
looked good when last checked, sunny with some clouds. Potential for
significant warning on 29th and 30th. I will
try to get into a routine of early starts on this trip.
