Yeah, there’s been some attempts here to move off of it. Casual scrambling vs scrambling isn’t very meaningful either though.
Funny but true. I’m not sure if I put it in here since I was trying to be concise, but elsewhere I’ve written there’s no shame in using more points of contact than a rating calls for (could be due to weather, bad shoes, lack of experience, injury, tiredness, whatever).
Hah. Yeah it’s useful to point out that it’s not a casual path, but “skilled” seems overkill.
Looks a narrower version of the north ridge of Baxter peak. I’d put that at firmly in surefooted + hands for balance. Depending on how large some of that talus really is (the scale could be deceptive) that could get into the easier side of scrambling.
