This last weekend I headed up with Brett to get on "Enter the Dragon" at Rocky Mountain National Park. We arrived on Friday night and after a few circles in the dark arrived at Dream lake where we spent the night. The next morning at 6am it was quite windy and foggy and we cut up too early and ended up on a different route than we anticipated. After steep snow climbing we got into the meat of this potentially new route.
The route began with a pitch of steep snow and light mixed climbing followed by a pitch of m4, and finishing with a crux pitch of m5 on loose rock.On the third pitch a rock I pulled out careened down and destroyed a cam that was part of our anchor, but luckily missed Brett.
