Glacier Creek Road is slighted for a possible 3 day opening to cars over Labor Day weekend...hopefully... then it will be closed yet again for paving for an undisclosed period of time... if you want to hit anything on the north side of Baker w/o a substanial approach September 4-6 would be your shot

did you see The Happening? i tell you...it's coming...
-
if 90 rounds in hitler's face is your idea of romance...absolutely... but if pulp fiction was a hit this will be enjoyed

Trip: White Salmon River - Class 4/5 Date: 8/8/2009 Trip Report: Sure this aint a climbing TR but if you havent done this one you're missing out...buddy is a guide with Blue Sky...sat front left (front right in the pics) and the trip was a damn riot! Waterfall drop kicked ass and highly recommend it

Trip: Mt. Rainier - DC Date: 8/21/2009 - 8/23/2009 Trip Report: Had a friend fly in from Michigan who wanted to give Rainier hell. Figured we'd be good. He's in good shape and the bastard has a plush condo in Telluride. Worked remotely for 6 weeks (living at 8k+ and hiking to 12k on a reg basis). Went up Friday to Muir. Kicked it above the clouds on Saturday. Hit the DC on Sunday. Even with all that atop the cleaver he was nauseous and dizzy...no good to go further. Rest of us felt strong but oh's well, the trip was for him. Was happy to be in the alpine and on the glacier. Lugged the picks up to Muir...did some ice climbing in the crevasses below camp...weather kicked ass...the slog to Muir sucked...wont bore with the details but will show part of the album...i will say i was looking forward to the upper mountain...rumors of sketchy ladders and spicy traverses made me think some excitement was to be had...Emmons looked in good shape so may give that hoot in the weeks to come. Muir Snowfield is tore to shit though Ice climbing was the highlight Gear Notes: ipod, glacier gear, picks and screws Approach Notes: slog
-
FYI...few good ones just below Muir (15 min jaunt) to drop into...most with good ledges or floors to start from...no ramp entries however
