[TR] Ingalls Peak - South Ridge Attempt 04/21/2025
OlympicMtnBoy replied to Lucas Ng's topic in Alpine Lakes
Nice, way to get out and learn, does look a bit icy there, just the way conditions go, sometimes it all warm and sunny! -
Somebody wants these! I couldn’t let them sit in the goodwill. Currently mounted on ancient Dynastars, I would put them in some 130 cm kids skis for fun approach tools and corn snow. These should fit most crampon compatible boots. They may or may not release as reliably so I don’t recommend them for resort skiing! Yours if you bring/buy me a good beer! I’m in Lake City Seattle.

Yes please. I volunteer Hellbent again!

A couple views from the other side looking down into Kalalau Valley from the lookout are up on the mountain. It was a fantastic and also mildly exciting hike out the ridge from the lookout on the “closed” trail to look down here. Made more exciting by a toddler in a backpack. Thanksgiving 2023. I certainly thought about doing some more remote/off trail stuff. Too bad those cliffs are so crumbly!

I guess I better head up Mt. Angeles again in 2026, I think that will be 30 yrs for the first time I roped up on a peak. Ironically we used goldline with a bowline around the waist for a 4th class step which was anachronistic even for 1996.

[TR] Long Mountain - West Route via Marten Creek 01/18/2025
OlympicMtnBoy replied to JasonG's topic in North Cascades
Haha, did that in spring a couple years ago and going up the snowshoes were a pain in the bushes and coming down a pain sinking in the extra slushy snow. Fun scramble though! -
first ascent Sloan Peak - [FA] Borrowed Time (WI5 M7)
OlympicMtnBoy replied to Michael Telstad's topic in North Cascades
Sick! Nice work! -
I’d bet Silverton/Hall peak area is in if someone can figure out access around the private property.

21 years later, is this a site record? How have you been @drl??

I’ll trade you for some different disused nuts and they can each visit other gear closets and make new friends!
