AJ Posted February 21, 2003 Share Posted February 21, 2003 Has anyone climbed the East Buttress of Cinderella Peak in the Twin Sisters Range? It sounds like a good climb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plexus Posted February 21, 2003 Share Posted February 21, 2003 There was a thread on this peak last year. Do a search for it. It's one I want to try this spring. Plan on getting up in there and trying a line I've seen on Barbara Peak. Also, as of last week, Crown Pacific was doing some major harvesting on the Howard Creek line just over the S. Fork Nooksack. That will impede driving and add a couple of miles to approaches. Also that line has a seasonal closure on it for the Nooksack Elk Herd on it. Oh, and watch out for bear and cougar and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layton Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 (edited) Is the E.ridge of Cinderalla in this photo. I took it 2 years ago in an attempt, but I was "lost" as in I had know idea what mountain was what. I took a "pass" from the lake up to the ridge. There were many passes to choose from, I took one to the left side. Couldn't figure out what mtn was what due to the fact that the maps don't name the peaks and Becky's drawing didn't match up. If the obvious ridge is the one in questions, it looks....hmmm...kinda un-classic to say the least.

Dru Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 maybe its the sunlit buttress directly below the summit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_Simpkins Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 I've wanted to do this route too. I guess just go Boot Lake and follow Beckey's directions. Click here for enlightenment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layton Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 But is that cinderella? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_Simpkins Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 On the sattelite photo, the peak JUST left of north of the obvious Boot Lake, the one with the ridge going SW, is the Little Sister. Just to the SE of Little Sister and just right of north from Boot Lake is Cinderella Peak. The Green Creek Glacier is North of both, and there is a ridge winding NE from Cinderella Stopping the East side of that glacier. In short, Cinderella is 0.5 miles NE of Boot Lake. The East buttress is very clear in the image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
