Harvard Mountaineering Club. The club opened the new year with its annual attempt to traverse the Presidential Range of the W hite Mountains during mid-semester vacation. Taking advantage of the experience gained from the three previous attempts, Charley Bickel, Chris Goetze, and Ted Carman utilized the one good day in weeks to cover most of the distance above timberline between Randolph and Crawford Notch and then com pleted the first HMC W inter Traverse the next day in full blizzard. In the spring the 15 th edition of Harvard Mountaineering was published under the editorship of Nile Albright. Numerous trips were made to Huntington Ravine in the W hite Mountains for ice climbing, and rock climbing was done in the Shawangunks, New Hampshire, and local quarries in the Boston area. The seventh annual climbing camp met in the Coast Range of British Columbia under the leadership of Steven Jervis and Gus Benner. W ith the sun’s shining an incredible 29 out of 30 days, the group of 21 partici pants succeeded in climbing most of the area’s major peaks. These included both summits of Mount Waddington, Mount Munday, Mount Tiedemann, and summits 1 through 4 of the Serra Ridge. A smaller party composed of Boyd Everett, Walt Gove, Leif-Norman Patterson, Albert Nickerson, and Ted Carman made the third ascent of the east ridge and east peak of Mount Logan, which evidently received all of the bad weather which the Coast Range missed. W e had one of the most active fall climbing seasons in several years, with a turnout of over 25 people at the last ’Gunks trip, and smaller turnouts for other activities. Discussion has become more serious about replacing the HMC cabin in Tuckerman’s Ravine with a new one located at some spot between Tuckerman’s and Huntington; and it is likely that positive action toward this end will be taken during 1962.
