Blake Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Washington pass has been a drive-to climbing mecca for decades, it amazes me that new routes get FAed quite regularly. Rock on Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dru Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 I think making the first ascent of the entire North Cascades should be at least a VII. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshK Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Layton, if you were a real climber, you'd go do the "cascade trifecta", not this new route bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
