This climb includes lots of snow travel with some great rock climbing, so we'll need everything for snow travel ( snowshoes, axe, crampons) as well as all the rock stuff. We'll have to move efficiently so plan for constant movement with minimal breaks and feel free to bring rock shoes to make the rock climbing more efficient.
