Yikes. I remember that it didn't inspire confidence even about 10 years ago. A silvery exterior with nugat center!

Oh man....so sorry to hear this. Condolences to his friends and family, I wish that I had met Daniel.

Good eye @dberdinka! At home, with careful looking, that really jumped out at me. These glacier have thinned dramatically in the last 19 years, as well as retreated. You may not be wrong about them evaporating one day in the not too distant future.

At first I didn't notice the bike in the photo and thought you were referring to the pace he set @olyclimber

Feel free to post other examples from the Cascades if you have them!

I got back from a repeat of the Ptarmigan after 19 years and it is pretty amazing the glacial recession in that time (2003 was a lean snow year and 2022 phat as well). Here are a couple examples: LeConte in 2003: LeConte in 2022: Chickamin Glacier in 2003: Chickamin Gl in 2022:

[TR] Glacier Peak - Frostbite Ridge 08/07/2022
JasonG replied to jefetronic's topic in North Cascades
This is one of my favorite routes in the range, but I haven't been back since the road washed out in 2003. Need to change that! But over 4 days for this old guy.... Great report, thanks! Oh, and for future parties, you can avoid the dangerous bit on the Kennedy by going around the north side of Kennedy peak. A bit longer, but quite mellow and scenic- that's how we went. -
Looks like a nice and tasty weekend! Love the links to the trips on your memory lane!

Crazy!!! I had no idea they made Ti frames! But I am really not much of a bike nerd.

I just use my Jamis Renegade to ride around town and to work, mostly to stay fit.. Maybe the occasional gravel approach road. But they are a sweet style of bike! What did you get @olyclimber?

Yes, Jacob's Ladder is definitely not a "classic" in the classic sense. And for us, the mystery of the unknown was quite enticing, and for sure clouded our view of the route. But glad that it was a good diversion nonetheless! -
I've never even heard of this range....looks great!

Looks like a great outing! And yes, in full sun and no wind, those alpine trout are spooooooooky!
