@thricefelt Totally depends on conditions, with the exception of the West Gully -that's a legit ice climb that requires two tools. If you don't do the West Gully (as most people don't), than you could get away with one tool if the Trough has more snow in it. With fatigue and frozen hands, I was glad to have two tools going up and down the ice section of the Trough in low snow conditions.
Gnar bar. Well done!

This video is really awesome. Do you think it could be done with a single ice axe?
