Got within a few hundred feet of Chiwawa's summit via Chiwawa River approach - snowing sideways, made it hard to find the route. Didnt summit.

 

There's been lots of times that I didnt summit - dont know why it bothers me this time. I guess I thought it would give it up to us

Hiked up to Lk. Vivienne on Sat. Went to bed. Woke up on Sun. morning with 30 mph+ winds, blowing snow, 30 deg. temps. Walked back down to TH. Drank beer. Rode home in back seat. Went to bed. yellowsleep.gif

You guys should have gone up the W. Ridge anyway. Weather was a little cold, but would have been a fun "adventure" climb.

 

I know. Been up it already and wasn't really motivated to suffer in high winds for 4 pitches I've already done. You're right though. I was ready to give the S. Face a try in sketchy conditions but was convinced by partners I was being a jack ass.

Scrambled Cashmere. Our car suffered a severe pulmonary embolism on the drive out there and a lesser one on the way back. Camped at Little Caroline Lake, five of us in a Megamid. Snowed/sleeted until about 11:00 AM, but then cleared up. Went up the north side of Cashmere (crampons would have been nice) and descended the west ridge.
