Dwayne Posted January 18, 2001 Share Posted January 18, 2001 I am planning a vacation to Washington in June or July and plan on doing some rock climbing while I am there. My questoin is: 1) Where are some good places to climb 2) Do any of you have any information, or know where to find information on the routes at that location. Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPS Posted January 18, 2001 Share Posted January 18, 2001 Jim Nelson and Peter Potterfield have written two guides to the Cascades; Selected Climbs in the Cascades and Selected Climbs in the Cascades Volume II. They are published by the Mountaineers and are available through almost all mountain shops in the area or from REI. These guides feature climbs for all ability levels in both alpine and crag environments. The topos and route descriptions are the best available. I would highly recommend these guides to the visiting climber, you really can't go wrong with any of featured routes. Your other option is the three volume 'Becky' guide which offers a comprehensive list of most routes in the range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
