Thanks for this TR which was part of the beta for our climb on the 29th. I'll piggyback here with a link to my TR over at NWHikers. [img:center]http://farm1.static.flickr.com/419/19959970349_33a4342f2c_b.jpg[/img] Stellar 3rd Pitch

Good work Ben, great write up and pics on your blog. I hiked Baring yesterday and couldn't bring myself to creep close enough to the edge to look down the face proper. What a cool mt. and proud line you guys did. [img:center]http://imageshack.us/a/img145/5994/mtbaring10201228.jpg[/img]

I don't understand any of the negative comments. To each their own, sometimes fast is fun, esp. when you are in such good shape (as they obviously are) that it is a joy to push yourself. Great job boys, come back and do some more enjoyable routes in these cool parts!

Trip: Mt. Forgotten - standard Date: 2/20/2010 Trip Report: Climbed and skied the standard route on Mt. Forgotten Saturday. Perry Creek trail was mostly snowfree, icy in the trees, skis were nice for last traverse. Views were fantastic. See NWH for full TR

Cooler than a moose & twice as hairy! Gotta see the pics!

Trip: Mt. Pilchuck - Onion Peel Waterfall Date: 12/12/2009 Trip Report: Ice climbing on The Onion Peel waterfall, Mt. PIlchuck. See TR at NWH. [img:left]http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/3393/onionpeelice.jpg[/img] Gear Notes: Bring plenty of screws if you lead it, will need them for belay also. Approach Notes: It would be easiest to go up the spring skier's route (not the icy trail), then drop the gully down to the stream below the waterfall and approach from below. Firm snow walking should get you there in an hour. You won't be able to see the good ice until just below it because it is behind a rock corner. Would be a good two pitch lead - solid ice for screws.

Trip: Sperry Peak - East face gully Date: 12/6/2009 Trip Report: See TR at NWH. Gear Notes: Used a piton, couple of nuts, a few screws, pickets. Approach Notes: Drive to end of road, trail is easy to Wirtz Basin.
