  1. anyone interested in a sloan peak day-trip on monday? i'm in super shape after humping into places like dome and ne buttress of goode all summer so only the fit need reply
  2. anyone climbed goode in late season conditions? if so, is it necessary to rap down into the moat and climb out onto the toe of the ne butttress? how does that go? thx
  3. hey all, looking to climb something from the following list tue/wed/thu or any combination of those dates and need a partner: sinister nf/dome peak, shuksan nf, baker north ridge, buckner nf, adams glacier, redoubt, etc. etc. pm if interested! thx will
  4. Trip: Mt. Rainier - Kautz Glacier (attempt) Date: 5/17/2009 Trip Report: made an attempt on the kautz glacier route this sunday but didn't even leave our 10,000 foot high camp due to tent-flattening winds. view of the route from the wilson glacier we found knee to waist deep unconsolidated snow on the approach with a fairly high avalanche danger. good crevasse coverage at the moment. only roped up on the nisqually. the snow firmed up as we got higher onto the wind scoured wilson. high camp hiking back down the next morning we found the wilson gully FULL of avy debris. millions of pounds of slab avalanche broke off from the slopes above and carried the debris 500 feet out onto the nisqually. SHIT. thank god we climbed it early in the morning! this photo doesn't do justice to the massiveness of the slide view of the route on the way out feel free to contact me with any beta questions on the kautz or nearby routes. fuhrer finger looked good! Approach Notes: bring snowshoes or die
  5. indeed i have. let me clarify by saying that i'm looking to climb that route on a sunday/monday with a favorable avalanche forecast. i was putting out a tentative request, not looking to climb today the 4th or tomorrow the 5th
  6. looking for a partner to climb the north face or white salmon glacier on shuksan. sunday/monday works best for me
  7. i realize its a shitty time to go; the 31st is the only day we can get together to climb. does anyone think coleman glacier seracs are top-ropeable at this time?
  8. my friends and i were planning to climb the neb or nf of chair peak tomorrow dec 31 but with the unfavorable avy forecast its a no go. has anyone been up there recently to climb despite the slide potential? maybe its all come off by now and the climb is safe? is hubba hubba or any of the other leavenworth ice climbs in? thanks!
