I climbed Cascade Kronenbourg and Carlsberg Column today. Temps were about -10. Cascade Kronenbourg was easy for its grade and Carlsberg Column was tough for its grade. The 1st pitch of Carlsberg Column was quite a bit more challenging than its neighbour. The tool placements were mediocre at best and it was challenging to find good gear. The gear on Cascade Kronenbourg was plentiful and the sticks were good. Both routes were dry.
Cheers,
Marco Delesalle
