Replying to Have you climbed Mt Elbert?
So my roommate and I are heading to Denver end of November for a long weekend trip (super cheap flights). I do some climbing here and there and wanted to tag your state highpoint. Have any of you climbed it in late november/winter? What can I expect for snow conditions? Any specific gear needed like snowshoes?
I've climbed Rainier and Baker in the Cascades. Humphreys in AZ (more of a hike). Granite Peak in MT. So climbing isn't really a foreign thing to me. And I know elbert is more of a hike anyway too.
