Climbed the north peak of Timpanogos via the Cold Fusion couloir. What an amazing route this was. The approach was 5 miles and then the chute was 3,000 verticle feet straight up on consolidated snow and it took about 3 hours to get to the summit. The views from the top were outstanding. We had a nice glissade down, although it was a little scary. It was hard to keep the slide controlled because it was so steep, but nothing too dangerous. Total elevation gain for the day was 4,800 ft.What a day!
My friend just added a trip report for the hike:
