scot'teryx Posted December 30, 2001 Share Posted December 30, 2001 Has anyone ever been up this peak on the Mountain Loop Highway just NNW of the Big 4 Range?(Topo: http://topozone.com/map.asp?lat=48.06056&lon=-121.53861) I read Beckey's route description and it seems do-able, but the only beta I could find was off of Eric's Base Camp (http://ericsbasecamp.net/trips/HallPkArea/HallPkArea.htm)and another website I cannot recall. The West Ridge is what I think is the most do-able climb, so any thoughts or info would be appreciated. ThanksScottscott@nwog.org Hall Peak from Big 4 trailhead on Mountain Loop Highway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvs Posted December 30, 2001 Share Posted December 30, 2001 This might be the other web page: http://www.geocities.com/peterclimb/hall/hall.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scot'teryx Posted December 30, 2001 Author Share Posted December 30, 2001 that is the other website! But I cannot find anything else other than those 2 pages and Beckey. Any other resources I am overlooking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanr Posted December 30, 2001 Share Posted December 30, 2001 Don't mean to be a smart ass, but how many resources do you need? The picture looks pretty cool, why don't you go try it and then tell us about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zippy_monkey_boy Posted December 31, 2001 Share Posted December 31, 2001 the best way to climb it is by the west side by a little valley i think called marble basin? the ice must be in good shape as there is a lot to fall on you in the best routes from this way. it is also a great place to take bigginers learning to ice climb. always something do-able. parking is the crux, as their are a bunch of little cabins (silverton) that are being brokin into. and the hiway on the other side of the bridge is not gusstapo friendly. another easy way up this hill is going by the ice caves, fun ice climbing here also, and going due west going up the gulley between west end of big 4 and hall. have been working on winter routes on big 4 for over 25 yrs now. close to home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
