Baker - third week of August

[phouse]

Hi all! My brother and I will be on Baker the third week of August. We plan on basecamping around the Portals or Flats (any suggestions/recommendations, pointers there?), spending a couple days practicing glacier travel and crevasse rescue on the Rainbow, Mazama, or Park glaciers (again, any suggestions?), and making summit attempts on the 17th or 18th.

 

Here's a thread with some trip background. It's just the two of us (so far) and we're relatively unexperienced (don't let that scare you away). We're looking for someone with some experience to join us for a day or two of practice and to (at the very least) join us in our summit attempt.

 

PM me if interested - or post here and make it a learning experience for all!

 

Thanks and cheers
