Example shot: Looking north down the slope of Split to the saddle. Is this the kind of stuff you're looking for?

Re: Split Mountain via West Face
Do you mean the class 1 ramp from Lake 3535? I did it in August 2011 and have posted several photos here:

Hi Cadi,
No but thanks for the photo's, looking for the class 2 "West Face" route that ascends
the ribs from the Lake 11975 area.
You have a shot in your album looking south #39, would you have any other shots
from that angle or even more southeast towards Cardinal Mtn? A straight on face
shot of Split from Lake 11975 would be great too.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Re: Split Mountain via West Face
Unfortunately the south summit/ridge of Split blocks most of the view towards Cardinal - I don't have anything that shows any more than what is in this shot.
I didn't wander up to Lake 11975 when I was there but I did take some photos of the west chutes from the lower lake around sunset. Maybe these might help?
