[Baker area hut proposal]

Keep the gate locked.  No huts.  No snowmobiles.  Gonna have to earn your turns, or the place will be over-run, and the seclusion, so close to Bellingham, will be ruined.  Imagine the shitshow up there if you could drive to the start of the switchbacks? Totally lame...

I 2nd Gene's advice  Plonked a ski pole basket into a gaper on the Sulphide during a solo attempt.  Super-mellow snow walk to that point.  Caught the fear and turned around.  Buyer Beware!!

Reminds me of those guys from Texas on Hood.   Winter climbing in the Cascades on a fixed itinerary is just a bad idea.

Same same...

[Partner(s) For Rock/Ice/Alpine Objectives]

Hello There!

Even though it is raining like a MF right now, I am looking for partner(s) for rock/ice/alpine objectives. 

Prefer folks with experience, but getting out in general is the goal, as long as we are a good fit objective wise.

B'Ham based myself, so local would be prefered.

DM if interested.

 

Thanks!
