yeah I kept hoping there was some fun couloir that snuck up to the main ridge through castle crags but no such luck - my first time climbing Mt Hood though - more fun to come. And yes it is contrived but fun!

You just need better visualization JohnGo clearly - I think what I said was pretty straightforward personally. But since you are maddeningly lame I have added a route photo, I am sure its probably been done many times before, it just happened I chose to make my own way up as I felt conditions allowed.

so sizing is a US size 10.5, I can measure the insole footbed if needed. Any reasonable offer considered.... need the cash to buy the right size! )

come on people offers..... you know you want to )

Trip: Mt Hood - Castle Crags -kind of.... Date: 4/19/2010 Trip Report: Climbed a route I made up on Sunday, climbed a steep arete from Illumination Saddle up to Castle Crags, left up a 50 degree coloir and came out on a 50 -65 degree face underneath Castle Crags but facig the Old Chute route, then climbed up to the ridge proper and round a few icy gendarmes to the summit! Good times. Time was a bout 6 hours up - a little convoluted way to the sumit, but had some interest on the steeper ground. Gear Notes: 2 tools Crampons Helmet Approach Notes: Head Up, then pick a line, any line.

or email if you're interested: gerardsmith@hotmail.com Thanks!
