As of 8/26, the Disappointment Cleaver route is unchanged from the previous
post. The guide services are still running trips on the DC, but independent climber numbers are decreasing precipitously. Camp Muir is nice and quiet on weekdays. The route is still climbing well for this time of year. The late-season nature of conditions make it slightly more challenging than a July ascent, but many climbers are having successful summit climbs. Come enjoy a quieter experience on the DC!

The ladder around 13,000'. There are fixed ropes above the ladder to aid in ascent. |
