Seems this time of year elicits a taste for spontaneous adventure. With any lingering projects nearly certain to be out of reach for the year, thoughts turn to more casual objectives, things that may just go at first sight. Over the years, that impulse has led to several “alpine” routes, lines snaking their way up Crane Mountain’s flank, generally along the South Corner Cliff. This year has been no different.
