tele_nut Posted April 12, 2004 Posted April 12, 2004 Climb: Navaho Peak -The peak Date of Climb: 4/11/2004 Trip Report: Between 1-2 miles of hiking mixed ground and snow then skis are on with only a few hundred feet of elevation gain. Skinned up and crossed a few creeks on snow bridges on the way in - walked across on the way out. IT was so warm I had to remove my shell pants and skinned up in my boxers. The ladies were gawkin'.. Excellent scenery to Stuart, DraginAss, Nightmare Needles etc. Went to signt the summit register. Found a reference to Trask and Allison in there. Anyway good turns and good times. Gear Notes: Skis Approach Notes: There is a trail up there. Before that is a road. Quote

Dave_Schuldt Posted April 12, 2004 Posted April 12, 2004 That area has some great runs and this time of year no snowmos. Quote

JoshK Posted April 13, 2004 Posted April 13, 2004 Nice slope. http://www.nwac.noaa.gov/revised_navaho_peak_slide.jpg Caveman, do you know when that pic was taken? What was going on that they triggered a slide with explosives but caught a "victim" in it?? Quote
Cpt.Caveman Posted April 13, 2004 Posted April 13, 2004 (edited) It's in december. You can look at the death report in the website for avalanches. I think it is referenced in the nw avalanche site and also in http://avalanche.org by clicking on something like accidents.... Dave what did the reference to traks say?
