Climb: Mt Baker-Squak Glacier/Roman Wall

 

Date of Climb: 6/26/2004

 

Trip Report:

Bushwhacker Climbing Club, Section 2, to the top!

 

Squak Glacier route then up the Roman Wall. Uhg, snow conditions were not so great - postholing up, didnt get to use crampons at all. At least the descent wasnt bad, the glacier cooled by cloud cover.

 

Crevasse rescue day was fun - six students in the hole and six rescued. The students used map & compass and kept me from getting lost - but I tried...

 

Again the Bushwhackers failed to make a sacrifice to the volcano. We chose an appropriate victim and attempted to throw her into the bubbling cauldron of magma, but she fought us off with her ice axe. We then appealed to her to take one for the team but she steadfastly refused. We're not certain how the mountain will react to this lack of respect but I sure ain't goin' back up there.
