And I assume you browsed this excellent TR (but maybe not since it should have answered your questions?):

Some history: http://solclimbs.blogspot.com/2016/10/first-ascent-king-kong-joe-puryear.html I think most have approached as per the West/North Ridge of Stuart, then cut over.

Third week of July 2011 @bobinc, which was a big snow year, and a cool summer, if I recall correctly.

Whoah. That looks like a place worth a visit!!

On Agnes @bobinc? It is typical high alpine Cascades- not great, not terrible. I remember it as reasonable quality but not memorable (good or bad). We had a lot of snow though, which may have hid some looseness. We opted to bypass the ridge in the foreground below using a series of gullies on the other side of the ridge that were snow filled. I think if they weren't, you would want to stick to the ridge. Summit from far below: There was only a short bit of mid-fifth as I recall (we may have only had one pair of rock shoes for the leader):

I'll be interested in hearing all about it @bobinc! I haven't seen a TR since our ascent and am curious if anyone else has been up there. Agnes is one of the loneliest major summits in the range, at least in my experience. A forgotten fang.

This is very true @rad but I hope you're mostly in the minority?

Are you looking to ski or walk? What time of year? These both factor in heavily since the "best" approach will depend on your answers to the questions above @Seraphim

Trip: Graybeard - South gully Trip Date: 05/20/2018 Trip Report: You'd think, looking at Graybeard from multiple angles, that there isn't a reasonable ski line on the peak. But a clever wee gully splits the south side and deposits one a few meters from the tippy top (some loosey goosey 3rd in ski boots to keep the finish spicy). On a clear day (which we didn't have) the view is not too shabby either, esp. the gulp inducing perspective looking down the north face. Yowza. It has been off my list for a long time but this only reinforced why. Descending back to Easy Pass in the afternoon brought us back to the crowds that are now unfortunately common in the North Cascades on weekends (3 people). Go midweek. This report is a bit late for the photos to be useful, but there is always next year. Summit ridge: Agnes! (L), Gunsight, and Sinster: The entrance is a bit steep: Across to Hardy (a great ski as well, with a bit more snow): Time to pack 'em: Gear Notes: skis, ski crampons Approach Notes: Careful on the side hill from Easy Pass. Cliffs below!

@lutzman.....Go to the TR search page and type in the username you are interested in. It should return only their TRs. The profile summary of TRs is still being developed by @jon

Too bad BMRU didn't get a ride up. Sounded like a miserable slog.

Thanks for the TR @charlie_r and welcome to the site! If you reivew @ivan's body of work you'll find that there is no magic formula for TRs. If you're stoked about it, we're stoked about it. The format, pictures, and description above are great! Keep 'em coming and go back and tag Forbidden!

Ahhhhh......the peaks of the Mountain Loop Highway! Three Fingers in the center. Whitehorse on the left edge of the photo. Bullon the high crag between 3F and WH. Liberty on the right in the sun. Big Bear between 3F and Liberty.

Wow, that's moving!

SP is dead to us. There is only Cascade Climbers.

AK provided?

You guys hit it so perfectly it almost seemed casual. Almost. Way to up the style points as well!

That Headwall route is on my list after seeing all the TRs of late. I've stared at it for years on our family Ross lake trips, might as well make it happen one of these springs! South Hozomeen next for you @geosean?

That's a huge effort in three days! Nicely done.

Done @H-Steven Song. Thanks for the TR and please keep them coming!

It's back off the list, thanks for the visual reminder (and for surviving!). Strong work, that's an intimidating beast

Ouch, but we're working to turn the tide!

If your query draws a blank here, NWhikers might be a good source. There are a lot of folks there that enjoy 'schwacking up obscure Cascadian peaks. I do as well, but I've never been on this one!

That looks really great! I need to make another trip up there and this route (plus Rexford) makes a good excuse.

WD-40 will strip the pollen off @Alisse, or a true base cleaner. Nicely done, Sahale is a great summit in any season!
