The Cascade Kid Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Trip: Mt Hood - Newton Clark Headwall Ski Descent Date: 5/29/2017 Trip Report: Finally tagged this one with Tom. Dropped in at 730 for perfect conditions, 3:14 car to car. Lots of folks starting up at 815 were gonna be in for a slop fest. Highly recommended for the steep skiing crowd. http://mountainlessons.com/skiing/newton-clark-headwall [img:center]https://scontent-lax3-2.cdninstagram.com/t51.2885-15/e35/18723133_264480994027653_7281330006200942592_n.jpg[/img] Gear Notes: Crampons on the Wy'East face, and race skis on the way down. Approach Notes: Snow to the lot at meadows still. Barely enought to skin the whole way on vista ridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diepj Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 No summit, only the top of the face, if I understand correctly. Not that it diminishes the accomplishment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
