Chris Gibbish and I climbed the NE Buttress of Howse Peak last weekend, located in the Canadian Rockies. We spent one night on the route, about 2/3 of the way up, a second night on the decent, and arrived back at the car the morning of the third day. The route covers about 4000 vertical feet and follows the prominent buttress directly below the summit.
Our bivouac on the route.
Chris and I huddled at 2am about 200' below the summit of White Pyramid, on the descent. A thunderstorm rolled in with lightning but luckily we found a nice protected spot
