I have it on vinyl somewhere. When I was in 7th grade, those guys were in HS in the same school. Man, they were so cool. I loved that album.
They later became Sweetwater, which got a bit more traction, and was more refined but also good.
Mount Olympus-Winter???
in Olympic Peninsula
Posted
I climbed Olympus one Feb in the late 1990's. We were pretty stoked to have a First Winter ascent, at least for a few days.
Someone in our party dug around and whoever he talked to speculated we were areound the 7th or 8th FWA.
Was a good trip. Slept in the shelter and then again on the top of the snow dome. Summit block was interesting. Walking up the Hoh was a little worse in winter thanks to the blow down, many downed trees to navigate. Avalanche issues were not a big problem thanks to elevation, goes without saying, low elevation and near the Pacific.
