Any ice starting to build? Updates welcome.

Numb for a great tent.

Good points

I am thinking of trading my green bd fusions for something more pure ice. I'm thinking vipers. Not the originals. Or Quark but not the old ones. Looking for straight trade, or trade and cash from you. Depending on what you have. Or pure cash. Ice tools in great shape. Used of course. But not abused. Have to sets of picks. One for ice and the thick ones for dry tooling mix. 253334337two Can text or email pictures.

I use to want one of these. Now i want the petzl gully. Almost have the weight Of the sum tec. And $50 less. Just a thought.

I have summited 6 times. I am in good shape. I always take 5hrs to muir on a summit climb. I can go faster but for me there is no advantage. I would leave earlier than 11 if it was me. Good luck. By the way 60min to muir is a crazy fast time. I can't go down from muir that fast with my average lung capacity.

Trip: Mt Rainier - kautz Date: 6/27/2017 Trip Report: Kautz route in Really good shape. No ice. Easy route finding. Minimal cravasses. Boot path in place to help with navigation and steep snow. Crossed nisqually highier than expected. Turtle snow field steeper than expected. Approach to 10400ft camp longer than expected. 9hr to camp. Summit day snow was firm and beautiful. 6hrs camp to summit. Carried over and descended the dc. Gear Notes: Carried extra ice screws but they were not need. Approach Notes: Do more calf raise. Approach is steeper than to camp muir.

Any updates on conditions ?

Are name like Candlestein-Careno and black powder referencng rock routes. i haven't seen those in the ice guide. where are they?

The best thing is get the washington ice guide. REI has it and the libary does too. The place that i went to learn was banks lake. Peewee area has some stuff you can bush wack to the top of and TR. Plus you can lead devils punch bowl easy WI2. Then once at the top set up a TR to the left on wi4. Good luck Try to find someone to bring you who knows what they are doing.
