Greetings from Maine

[Hiker Seth]

Found this place while doing a search for a possible trip to the Beartooths this summer. Wish I had known about it before my trip to the Winds last year. Mostly I'm a NE hiker/backpacker who now has a bit of a western mountain problem. I do the UL thing because I like it, and I'm not a jerk with those that don't. Hope I can contribute and learn from you adventurous folks out west. Those mountains and those fish, you are lucky.

See ya out there.

Welcome @Hiker Seth ! Looking forward to some trip reports from your neck of the woods.

Hi there. The Winds are a good place, and the beartooths as well. This may be the first year in many that I don't make it to either.

Just a reminder folks, there are to be absolutely NO "maine" puns made here, on penalty of having to hang out with @Jackson for an entire day.

Thanks for the welcome. @b.stark it was your post that brought me here. I was trying to see if there was any beta on getting from Snowbank lake down to Bergschrund lake without dying. Going up that route didn't sound like a lot fo fun. I actually scoped that line on Google Earth and CalTopo. Nice to get real world confirmation.

Hooray, I'm useful! (In my best Dr. Zoidberg voice)

Glissade up to Elpestrine goes! Nice views of the towers above Bergschrund on the way up.
