Fairweather Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 My current wish list: Mount Adams - complete circumnavigation of mountain on RTM trail and XC route between Mazama Saddle and Avalanche Valley. Maybe throw in a climb of The South Klickitat Icefall or White Salmon Glacier. Mount Rainier - Tahoma Glacier Mount Rainier - Ptarmigan Ridge Mount Stuart - North Ridge Olympus Range - Approach via Queets Basin, set up camp on Hoh Glacier (Camp Pan) and climb everything with a name... W,M,E,Athena,Mathias,Mercury,Owl,Tom,Hermes,.... Mount Hood - Climb Coe Icefall and finish via Sunshine route to summit. Oops, that's six....

John Frieh Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 Could people specify if theirs is a wish list or a suggested list (or prepare to be inundated with beta requests)? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dberdinka Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 I don't think Layton's climbed a single thing on his list but it sure does sound good! I proclaim the five must do climbs of the Cascades to be Steinbok NE Buttress SE Mox East Face S Hozomeen NE Face Bear The Diamond Index Traverse in Winter After you climb them send me beta so we can "compare". Sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Frieh Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 As Mr. Layton aka Gravy has been kind enough to share his "wish list/to do list"... you are right: he hasn't done any of those... that's why people should specify what they are posting...

Alex Posted October 29, 2004 Share Posted October 29, 2004 NOLSe, you apparently are not as up on what others around here climb as you'd want to be. You should probably stop talking smack and just go climbing so you can catch up to the people you so regularly diss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
