Mal_Con Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 Do not know if these are "real peaks" or just long steep hikes but all have been done after work. Chair, Kaleeten, Red, Tooth, Silver, Tinkham, Teneriff(waterfall route), Defiance, Kendall, Humpback, Guye, Rampart ridge,Snoqualmie, and Putrid Pete's You end up walking out in the dark is all .

eternalX Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 Jefferson, Jackson, West Seattle, Mt Si....oh wait. I think we're talking about two different things... Quote
Stefan Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 what are some "real summits" you can climb overnight and still be at work in the morning after It depends on what you call a real summit. But, if the weather is right....you can climb lotsa stuff on full moon nights in sping snow conditions. Quote
Dru Posted April 28, 2004 Author Posted April 28, 2004 i know but i am wondering more what people have climbed on weeknight dawn patrols. i was thinking of going after tomyhoi n face one night next week if the good weather holds - full moon coming up... Quote
Ducknut Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 Here is a dawn patrol shot from Sunday morning, back in the parking lot at 9 am. Quote
Greg_W Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 I think jja climbed Chair Peak one night this past winter, and got to work the next day. (Not that I could do it...) jja and I hit that and were back to the car by 2-ish. I actually got some decent sleep before heading in to work. Quote
Dru Posted May 3, 2004 Author Posted May 3, 2004 if you do happen to be out near sunrise or just before with a good view of the eastern horizon, apparently you will be able to see Comet Bradfield for the next few weeks. more details here Quote
