Beta

Mongo ridge has been written about by Wayne Wallace and Jeff & Priti Wright. Jeff’s trip report is really detailed and was quite helpful to us. Here are links to their trip reports and beta: https://alpinevagabonds.com/mount-furys-mongo-ridge-a-second-ascent/ and https://waynewallace.wordpress.com/2014/05/13/nwmj-mongo-ridge-report/ . For the most part this write up is a trip report of an adventure with beta thrown in. I’ll summarize our key beta notes below first before the full story.

Timeline

Our planned itinerary was similar to Wayne's and we prepared for 5 days. As usual the mountains had other plans for us. Here was how our itinerary actually played out.
