We wore snowshoes past Crater Lake and up to the base of the climb for the Ellingwood/ Blanca saddle. Then we switched into crampons and used our ice axes for both Blanca and Ellingwood. Ellingwood involved more routefinding but Blanca was essentially a snowy boulder hop along the ridgeline to the summit. |
