scot'teryx Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 Glacier Peak was good, but that approach did suck ass, especially with my skis and boots on my pack that does not carry weight that well. Only saw 2 other parties up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshK Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 scott, what route on glacier peak did you do? I was thinking of going up frostbite and down sitkum on skis sometime soon. where did the snow start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scot'teryx Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 We did Sitkum Ridge........ The snow did not start until Boulder Basin, around 5700 where we could start skinning. It really sucked carrying the gear in, especially up the root ridge where every single tree would grab your boots and skis. I will never do that again for sure. The ski down from the summit to the saddle was icy, but the upper Sitkum glacier was some of the best skiing I have done this year, and then the lower sitkum glacier sucked since it rained the night before. We ran into my friends on Saturday that did it in a day, something like 18 hours car to car on skis. That's the only way I would ever do that route again, and the wife expresses interest in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshK Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 Yeah, sitkum glacier is a good ski down. the only time I did it was without skis and I regretted it the entire time since that route is BOOORRRING otherwise. I figured frostbite might be a more interesting alternative that would still allow the ski down. Damn, that's high for the snow to start. I did it a bit later in June last year and we were on snow about 500 feet above kennedy hot springs, which made finding the trail up to boulder basin a bit of a pain.
