Mt Cline is an 11,000'er located on off the David
Thompson Highway. The southwest ridge route
includes a short section of snow/glacier travel,
moderate scrambling and 2 crux notches on the
ridge. Overall an easy/moderate climb. Great for
all levels of experience. On Saturday we will
hike the bivy site, about 4-5 hours and set up
camp. We will get an early start Sunday for the
climb and return to the cars Sunday evening. For
those interested in rounding out the weekend we
will camp on the Ice Field Parkway Sunday night
and go to Lake Louise for sport/trad climbing on
Monday.
