Roche, Mount & Yarrow (Spread Eagle, Raptor, Eaglet)

After scrambling Drywood Mountain I only had 1 Nugara scramble left in the Castle Wilderness, namely Mount Roche, or Spread Eagle Mountain. I couldn’t find any other trip reports of anyone taking Andrew’s ascent route but I thought it sounded fun and would be worth a try. His dire warnings about not being able to down climb it were a bit ominous though.

Newman Peak | Spionkop Ridge | Avion Ridge Traverse

A long day out but a very worthwhile one and one of the nicest days I’ve spent in Waterton.
