It sounds like the crux is between Camp Schurman and Emmons Flats at the moment due to many crevasses. It's been described as 'swiss cheese.' The rest of the route appears to be pretty direct, but always assess the route as you go, don't just blindly follow the bootpack. Climbing rangers are headed to Schurman Friday and will be there through the weekend. We will post a more in-depth route description after our summit climb.  |
