Wopper Posted June 14, 2001 Share Posted June 14, 2001 Did you do Daniel? If so how were the conditions and route? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
climbingjosh Posted June 14, 2001 Author Share Posted June 14, 2001 No, we decided to stay in town while the weather was threatening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Posted June 14, 2001 Share Posted June 14, 2001 Some buddies I ran into at the Brick on Sunday 5/10 climbed it over the weekend via one of the glacier routes and said it was in good shape and snow free on the approach for higher than they expected. I don't know if there was snow at the lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted June 19, 2001 Share Posted June 19, 2001 I hiked up the non-technical east-side route last sat (6/16) to the E summit, via Cathedral Rock Trail/Peggy's Pond. Trails are in decent condition, & it's all snow above Peggy's Pond. Snow up high was a bit soft but mostly OK (we carried crampons but didn't use them). Visibility was spotty above 6000', but I got a brief view down the Daniel Gl- a few open crevasses were obvious, but the glacier looked attractive & generally in good shape.

climbingjosh Posted August 2, 2001 Author Share Posted August 2, 2001 Daniel finally made it into our climbing plans. We climbed Cathedral rock on the way in. Then climbed the SE ridge form Peggy's pond. No snow until about 1000ft below the E peak. We had hard snow from there on. We used our crampons, but carried a rope and glacier gear to the summit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
