Lukic--we exchanged email a few days back. Trying to get a rope team together for Fri-Sat this week on Baker. Do those days work for you?

Weather was lousy last weekend. Hoping to find two partners, at least one of whom knows the Easton route. Ideally, both would have some level of glacier travel experience I have intermediate experience having climbed Rainier 3x, Adams, Hood, Denali. Baker has been on my list for a while and this weekend looks like promising weather. If interested, email me (dan.pingree@hotmail.com), or call my cell: 425-891-1486.

kane--sounds good. sorry for the confusion, but I actually hope to climb it this fri-sat (jul 20-21). I screwed up the dates in the original post. Still interested in this fri-sat? If so, give me a call.

Looking for at least one, ideally two other partners to rope up with on Baker this Friday-Sat (7/20-7/21). Hoping to do standard Easton route and hope to find somebody that's done that route before and has moderate experience. I have intermediate experience having climbed Rainier 3x (DC, Ingraham Direct, Winthrop), Adams (SS), Hood (South Side), and Denali (West But). Hopefully there's a couple of people out there that have a little knowledge of Baker and some climbing experience that would want to climb this weekend. If interested, shoot me an email (dan.pingree@hotmail.com), or call my cell phone 425-891-1486. I've been wanting to do Baker for a while and am getting that itch for this weekend--weather permitting!

Looking for partner(s) for a climb up Baker on 6/29-6/30. Since I haven't climbed Baker, probably looking to start with Easton Glacier route, but am somewhat flexible. Ideally, the partner would have climbed this route before. Just climbed Hood w/ partner from this forum and it turned out to be a blast...so here I go again. Intermediate experience--Rainer 3x (ID, DC, Winthrop), Hood (SS), Adams, Denali (West But). Very comfortable on rope teams, crevasse rescue, etc. Shoot me mail if interested...dan.pingree@hotmail.com

I'd be interested in the SS. Done Rainier 3x (all standard routes) and Denali. I could manage weekdays as well. Let me know what dates you were thinking. -Dan (dan(dot)pingree(at)hotmail)

Looking for a partner(s) for a weekend climb up standard routes of either Hood or Baker week after next (6/1) or weekend after (6/8). My experience level is intermediate. (climbed Rainier 3x up fairly standard routes; adams, denali (west but). Need somebody that's competent to rope up with and somebody that enjoys a good yarn. I'm in Seattle and could meet you there. Email me at dan(dot)pingree(at)hotmail if interested. Thx.

I hear you. Have you ever climbed it this late in the season before? I was hoping the crevasses wouldn't be overly wide. I've heard they're pretty wide on Baker in September.

Looking for a partner on Hood this week. I'm in between jobs and have wanted to climb it for a while. Since I'm new to CC, I have moderate level of climbing experience--I've climbed Rainier twice and climbed Denali this past summer. Ping me if you're interested in either a climb up Hood or Baker this week. I'd prefer Hood, but could be talked into Baker. Cheers.
