Thanks for the report and pictures.

Very nice TR and pix. I hope to do the same route this weekend. Weather looks good!...

Thanks for the TR. We are planning to do the same route early October. Hopefully it will not be jeopardized by any snow storm.

Nice TR, photos and video, thanks for sharing.

Anyone going the east ridge this Saturday?

I'm planning on summiting Russell via east ridge on Sat Oct 9. Anyone know how much snow there is up there right now?

Summitted via east ridge yesterday under warm blue skies. No snow anywhere. Keep an eye on the weather though, it snowed last year in early to mid October.
