"South Bross"

Route: Decalibron plus Red Amphitheater
Posted On: 1/12/2026, By: jacolc
Info: Parked at gate but was passible to drive to Lake (1 SUV did ). Finally this caused to my way down from South Bross via Red Amphitheater directly to my car. Do not try this in opposite direction. At least until sea of scree will be covered with snow.
I used my micro spike only at the lower part of descent. However they will be useful, especially on Lincoln, after more sunny days.
Do not make my mistake and bring snowshoe in current condition.
Whole loop take me 7.5h 

Route: Via Mt. Bross

Info: Behold the fifth CR ever for the majestic sub-summit of South Bross. The short traverse from the main summit is dry. I once remember reading a forum thread in which someone said "if you're climbing Sunlight Spire, you've got bigger fish to fry than South Bross." Now that I have fried the fish, that seems to be an accurate statement. 

Route: Dolly Varden / East Slopes
Posted On: 5/28/2022, By: joflyer22
Info: Mostly continuous snow from ~11,800' on the East Slopes access road. Cut over into DV Gulch part way up and went VFR direct to the ridge and over to South Bross. Decent snow on the DV side, but the ridge is spotty with a few cornices. The real summit of Bross has even less snow and I crunched down a bit of gravel and rocks because I was way too lazy to be taking off and then re-donning my snowshoes. Descended via DV Gulch - very lovely soft snow by 10:00 AM and several skiers/boarders were taking advantage. Parked at the mine. It's feels like cheating to start that high but made for a quick day back to the beer cooler :)

Info: We hiked up from Alma to the summit of Mt. Bross. Beautiful day, not a cloud in the Sky. Could see all the other hikers submitting the different collegiate peaks. A little wind, but not too bad. Summitted at 11:08am. Started at 7:45am.

Summit:
Return to TH:
Participant: Mike Via

Trip Report:
Info on Mt Bross, S Mt Bross and Mt Cameron: I shortened a reverse Decalibron trip due to high wind. Starting at winter closure 2.6 miles from Kite Lake at the Paris Mill site, wore snowshoes past the lake and to the switchover point at 13,100 ft on the ramp up to Mt Bross. Put on microspikes there. From the top of gully, most of the distance to Mt Bross, S Mt Bross and Mt Cameron were in wind I could barely walk against. As I left Mt Cameron summit I saw sdkeil and 2 others silhouettes on the summit of Mt Democrat. The wind died down considerably about halfway down to the Cameron/Democrat saddle. 

Route: Dolly Varden Gully

Info: Dolly Varden Gully is in real fat. Continuous line from the summit of South Bross with minimal rock maneuvers off summit. Bross is caked as well with continuous snow from the gully to the summit.
