In late March, Vince Anderson and Steve House climbed a new route on the north face of Mt. Alberta in the Canadian Rockies—the first time this legendary face has been ascended in "near-winter" conditions. House has generously provided this slide show to give a taste of the adventure.

Vince skiing in to Mt. Alberta from the Banff-Jasper Highway. On the first day we had to cache our packs in a snow hole, return to the highway, and sleep at my truck due to difficult trail breaking. The second day we made it from the highway to the hut in six hours.
