that you need one green Coleman type propane tank (465 g) for the stove
and lantern. Lots of water running in the approach gully.
June 5, Castle Tower, 1926 route. Several snow gullies to cross on Goat
Plateau, could be a problem with a freeze overnight and no ice ax. 60 m
of snow in the scree bowl half way up the route avoided on ascent by
climbing the rock rib -climbers left (rappelled down the snow on the way
down). Overall the route is dry and good to go, lots of snow seen on the
back side, still some ice on rockbound lake.
Happy trails
