Fletcher Mountain Northwest Face

Fletcher Mountain Northwest Face

The common ascent route for this is up Fletcher Mountain NW Chute, marked with a yellow line. You could also go up the ridge above Gold Hill and over Drift Peak. Be cautious around the cornice on the ridge if you take that route.Be wary of danger from avalanches and fallling rocks on the downhill. This is a Spring line. You need a really solid snowpack, and you need for these rocky faces to fill in. It’s a difficult, dangerous Northwest facing line. You can exit through a small couloir to the skier’s left if it’s filled in.
