OlegV Posted December 20, 2004 Posted December 20, 2004 Sandy Glacier headwall OR Leuthold Couloir OR Cathedral Ridge tomorrow night. The routes should be well frozen with temps in low 20s, clear sky, low wind. PM Justin_RR or me if interested! Quote

kurthicks Posted December 23, 2004 Posted December 23, 2004 were you guys up there on Sunday evening? We ran into a party of 3 coming down, all covered in rime... Kurt Quote
OlegV Posted December 23, 2004 Author Posted December 23, 2004 We left Timberland under clear sky Tuesday morning. At Illumination Saddle, it got so nasty, we couldn't stand upright. We had to crawl down in a vague south direction. Thanks to my partner and compass, we found Palmer in whiteout. Quote
Justin_RR Posted December 23, 2004 Posted December 23, 2004 Hey Oleg, Justin here. I guess I lucked out that I didn't go up with you and Gaston (he was your partner, right?). Sounds miserable, and with such a good forcast! Let me know if you are up for an attempt on the Sandy HW this coming week. Quote
