Thank you for sharing. I was with you every step of the way. You had perfect weather. I love hiking and climbing in that area. Temple Crag my favorite climb in the area.

Nice video! Looks like you had perfect weather. I tried to climb Mount Sill from the Barrett Lakes via Potluck Pass but we ran out of time. Great peak.

@jpetersonx127 Thank you John. The weather was good. It was a little warmer than I would like. It is a beautiful area. I recommend this route if you ever go back.

keep these videos coming, the way you get after all these peaks is inspiring. Going for this route next month. How was that step around move? I think it's pitch 4 or something

@nickb1966 Thank you. The step around move is pitch 3. The move is not too hard. There is a short Crack just above the step around move. That is the crux. Sorry I didn't capture the step or crux.

wow great timing of a video! i was searching to see what type of conditions sill/swiss arete would have to know if cramps+axe is still required and your video popped up! seems that the snow was soft enough for cramps + poles? or possibly even micro spikes + poles? wonderful video!

@ccolagio_ I suggest crampons and ice axe. If you get a cold night or two the surface can harden quickly. We left our crampons and trekking pole at the base of the arete and picked them up on the descent. We carried our ice axe all the way up. Good luck on the mountain

If you need crampons, you need an ice axe. Period. Very difficult to impossible to self-arrest with hiking/ski pole. If I am on steep snow, an ice axe is always in one of my hands.

@@steelheadranger fair. i probably would prefer less weight - ie, micros+pole conditions/comfortability
