We summited the East Ridge of Mt. Bancroft last February and this is a compilation of some pictures and video clips. I didn't take out my video camera in the notch, so you won't see any footage here of the crux.
I found the beta in the Colorado Snow Climbs book to be great for the most part. The descent from the notch looked far spicier then described (though we didn't try it), but the rest of it was very accurate.
Overall it was an incredible climb and I would highly recommend it to any experienced mountaineers out there looking for a convenient weekend trip in CO. Feel free to reach out with any questions on the climb.
