JonnySnakeSlayer Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 Climb: April Peak-Via South Fork Tunnel Crk. Date of Climb: 6/17/2006 Trip Report: Jeff and myself headed out Sat. to attempt "The Nun". We loaded up with two ropes (the Climber's Guide mentions a 120' rap)and limited climbing gear. At the base of the Nun it started pouring so we headed toward April summiting around 1:00 pm. The snow was in good shape, the visibility was sketchy, the rain was non-stop. We were soaked, but in good spirits. Gear Notes: Ice Axe / shoulda had Umbrella Quote

JonnySnakeSlayer Posted June 20, 2006 Author Posted June 20, 2006 Hi John, Congrats also on the Black Peak climb this past weekend. Sounds like you guys had a great trip. My "Carl Lewis" sprint from a rattler at Tieton nickname seems to have stuck. I just posted a pic in the gallery taken from the 4900' level. This may be Destroyer. Quote
bremerton_john Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 That's a foggy pic there. When I was last on April it was a crystal clear day and I still wasn't sure which one was Destoyer. Guess I ought to just go in there and have a look. Quote
