Could one possibly ride a mountain bike up Russell?
Are there any facilities along the way? A potty with running water perhaps?
Aright, just kidding. We better stop with this line of questions or Laura will cook a 12 course meal.
One other thing--people seem to often refer to the entire route up the North Fork drainage as the "Mountaineer's Route"--this is not correct, is it? You can take the North Fork drainage up to many destinations, right? Thor, or Carillon, or East Buttress, etc., without taking the MR, which I understand is the gully right of the East Buttress above Iceberg Lake, correct?
