Trip: Mount Hood - Pearly Gates

 

Date: 1/25/2015

 

Trip Report:

Being that this is a popular route, I figured I'd write up a trip report for anyone thinking of going up to hood the next few days looking for photos. We encountered warmer than average temps this weekend with some notable ice fall coming mainly from the steel cliffs. After waiting for the sun to come up in a moat we made a quick push to the summit via pearly gates. The bergshrund was easily crossed. We climbed the right gully which seemed more mellow then in the past but still requiring 2 tools. Given the warm weather and the increasing ice falling, we rapped the gully with a 60m and a picket. Saw someone slip and slide all the way down the slope coming out of the gates but walked away uninjured, hope you're okay! Glissaded most of the way back to timberline just in time for lunch ;)357.JPGphoto82.JPG1143.JPG2101.JPGphoto83.JPG
