[TR] Twin Sisters Range - Green Creek Circuit 08/19/2021
JasonG replied to Kyle M's topic in North Cascades
Thanks for the reminder to return! -
Ain't that the truth! My experience at ONP definitely jives with yours. Best of the bunch (on average), by far. Some of the ranger interaction stories I have personally collected over the years from the other two parks boggle the mind. I mean I understand that they work with the public and all, but..... ONP shows that you can thread that needle with the right leadership!

[TR] Salami Slab, Darrington - Snagglepuss 07/05/2020
JasonG replied to curtveld's topic in North Cascades
Oops. Hopefully this year? Need to get out there with you @curtveld and we can get Casey and @Trent to come along as well! -
Yeah.....there are definitely issues with the homepage.... @jon and @olyclimber have been notified, but I think only @jon can provide the final solution. Sorry! In the meantime, just bookmark the forum main page and skip past home please.

I'm with @bedellympian- zero routes on the volcanoes are a good idea in mid-September, esp. this year. Most glaciated routes, even on lower peaks, won't be great either. That said, Eldorado and the Sulphide on Shuksan might fit the glaciated bill for you (and be in not dangerous shape). Or scramble something like Mt. Stuart for the big mountain feel?

Good question.....I don't know @Otto. But I bet @olyclimber or @jon does!

My personal favorite MA TR on this site:

I plan to see it on the big screen! MA was big inspiration to me over the years, even though I never met him in person. Although the film is probably something he would've probably cringed at seeing, I am glad that we can all get a better sense of who he was as a person and climber.

[TR] Mt Index - North-Middle-Main Traverse 07/10/2021
JasonG replied to Riley81's topic in Alpine Lakes
Well done! Glad the report could be of use.... That is a proud and interesting traverse. -
Yeah, I probably should move on at some point as well, but I'm still deluding myself!

Thanks for letting me know the approximate value! I have them all from 0 to the current issue....

first ascent [TR] Mongo Ridge-W.Fury F.A.- VI-5.10- 8/28/2006
JasonG replied to wayne's topic in North Cascades
@Priti and Jeff??!! -
Yep, one of those parties (I think) was a friend of mine and his girlfriend. They reported no issues (except a few close bear encounters) and had a great climb.

[TR] North Howser Tower - All Along the Watchtower 08/06/2019
JasonG replied to JeffreyW's topic in British Columbia/Canada
Wow, @jwalseth weighs in on this! So great! -
A lot of them have been stolen or thrown off the mountains over the years. I'd say a good proportion of the prominent summits had them in the 80's and 90's, but many have since disappeared. It is a shame. For a lot of those summits there was a good deal of history in the old registers, sometimes going back to the FA! Alpinist did a good story on the Mountaineers summit registers awhile back, but it isn't available online.
