The weather forecast may improve in the next week or so. I am looking for a alpine partner to climb snow and ice (if there is any left). Some ideas: Mt Hood (Devils Kitchen HW, Sunshine, NF gullies (considering low snow level, it's a stretch and an extreme calf burner) Rainier (Gibbs Ledges...maybe) Chair Peak (NF?) Extreme hiking is always an option

looking for a partner to climb Reid HW; leaving the T-line sat am; 3/16/2019 ovarlamov@yahoo.com

Outstanding trip and pictures! Thanks for sharing.

I recall, Shuksan's Hanging Glacier hasn't been climbed in winter, but I might be wrong.

Few more pictures. Bala chopping steps and following a fun pitch 4

I am just happy Bala led the last crappy pitch and I was enjoying a view of the North face

United we stand, divided we fall

Extraordinary trip - thanks for posting the pictures and route conditions. We are planning this trip in August and hope the moat will be still passible.

Looking for a 3rd person for climb the NR of Forbidden. Open to other options in Pickets.

True, global warming or just a warm fluke in the global weather

The Rainier's Mowich Face is typically done starting at the Mowich Lake via the Ptarmigan Ridge. I came across this 2002 TR from Alpine Dave, who began the climb at the West side road. http://www.alpinedave.com/mt_rainier/mowich/mowich.htm Anyone has experience with this approach/trail conditions in late June - early July?

Hey Eric. That sound like fun - I am still watching climbing videos

What was happening to Bill this year?

I really want to finish Jeff Park Glacier

Bill who?

Looking for alpine partners. I've been out of commission for a year and would like to start with moderate alpine routes this summer. PM if you have interest in developing partnership. Oleg

Way to go Mike!

The road is usually closed till July

The NF in Morning glory

The North Face and the Elliot in full beauty!

I might be traveling to Chamonix in early January. I hope to climb a mixed alpine route in the area. I wonder if the January weather is stable enough to justify my trip. Thanks! Just look at this awesomeness!

Congratulations Mike. Great job!

looking for a partner for Hood this Thursday. Something more interesting than the Dog's route. The weather window is closing on Friday.

Thanks for the info! Late March is a transitional time with not too many options for outside activities.
