The road is closed at the parking lot. There is bootpack trench to the radio towers and snowshoe trench to timberline. I climbed the east ridge, which is sufficiently wind-scoured that snow can be avoided (Photo 1). It was also very windy, so I descended the summer route which looks clean from the summit ridge (Photo 2) but actually crosses several fresh windslabs (ex. Photo 3).

Did you get eyes on Antero while up there? Similar to Princeton?

Thanks for any insight!

This picture is as good a description as I can give of Antero at the moment.
