Fantastic photos and sounds like great time

Interesting and good timing on the season as far as weather. In a nutshell how did the ankle injury occur? I have a pretty good idea how but wouldn’t mind hearing firsthand. TTT

[[TR] Coleman Pinnacle - West Ridge 02/10/2018]

Just amazing conditions and photos

Found trekking poles on Adams: see climbers board post.

[Ideas for a highschool mountain climb]

Snowking might be good if road conditions are approachable, look at Ruth MTN up north. A bit of steep heather mid point but a low angle glacier near the summit.

Nice thanks for posting

 

 

[[TR] Argonaut - NE Couloir + Colchuck 5/31/2014]

Nice write up and outing, looks like the Enchantments are in for these peaks right now. Note the rap that may need two ropes on this route down.

[[TR] Mount Rainier - Ptarmigan Ridge 6/1/2014]

Great TR.

[Chad Kellogg gone]

RIP Chad. Big loss.

Way to get you all, thanks for sharing (and cheating ..

 

[Ingraham Direct]

If its in it's a great route. Check with the rangers as the website hasn't been updated. Make sure you bring your helmet.

Regarding the post above, can you cite a source? The article referred here talks about the accident only.

[[TR] Mt Rainier - D.C Route 9/27/2012]

Nice late season update, the Ingraham usually becomes unclimbable late June or so. You had great weather.

[[TR] Mt. Baker - North Ridge (Attempt) 8/19/2012]

Great read and what others already mentioned.

[Mt. Stuart Conditions]

Moving to the Alpine Lakes section

[[TR] Colchuck Peak - NE Couloir 6/6/2012]

This TR was originally posted in the N Cascades section so I moved it Alpine lakes..I thought I left a pointer in that section. The June TR contest Is on.

[[TR] MRNP - Gib ledges/ DC 5/27/2012]

Bringing the TR up to date.

[NOOB Questions: Disappointment Cleaver Late July]

Sounds like you're dialed in, maybe look at crevasse rescue practice on a two man team. Anchor placement and self rescue along with a double pulley extraction and practice prussik self extracation.

 

[Mt. Rainier Gear - What do you think?]

The SP article is great including training on going down--many accidents happen coming down and you use different muscles than while going up, which most train heavily. Another good point is the hydration and nutrition, eat/drink things that go down well because while up on the mountain it can be a chore and few things sound good. Beef jerky or something salty is good after a lot of exertion. Last point is the mountain creates it's own weather, it can be sunny and 70 in Seattle and crazy weather on Rainier as fronts seem to hit there first.

LOL....nice shot.

[Mt Rainier Rescue]

Hope for the best. Several years back two of my climbing partners teamed up with another group of two and made it down after 11days.

[Solo winter attempt of McKinley underway]

Wild stuff. Props to him doing the prudent thing.

[Ranger shot at Mt Rainier NP - not good]

RIP to someone with family and friends who had this happen doing a job that shouldn't have ended like this.
