large icicle up there for YOU

[mountainsloth]

how about glacier peak? maybe not technical but what an adventure!

[sefton]

so Glacier peak not been climbed in winter? ( I'm from NZ and only been here 3 months and looking forward to some winter fun!!) )

[mountainsloth]

i assume it has. it takes 3-5 days in the summer with forest roads open to the trailhead. I would guestimate a week or more in the winter and you would probably be doing it on skis.

green beckey says 67 climbed Glacier Peak on August 26, 1921. F'ing Mounties!

I'm with Sol on this one John.

 

Same here.

 

However, while I'd say the lads' jaunt was the first true alpine style ascent, ours was in better style and much more important since we wore red capes and speedos throughout. Except in the photos of course. 'Cause like, that'd be weird.

You guys are stupid. This is where you wanna go in winter:

Closet Secrets?

 

He's talking about Shreddie.. the route on the right. Don Serl led that thing at like 60 yrs old, totally bad-ass!

[YocumRidge]

Shreddie.. the route on the right.

 

Help me out re: a lead fall on this one.

 

Do you die instantly or you suffer first?

No shit, junior. I was wondering about the one on the left. Good climb.

[John Frieh]

 

Which one? Need a partner for either?

""Help me out re: a lead fall on this one.

Actually it would be a clean fall cuz it's dead vertical

 

but I don't ever climb to fall on ice so I wouldn't know what happens.

 

I think in this pic it was in gift conditions, while still grade 5 it was continuous, it's usually got a thinner section where it thins to the right.

[marc_leclerc]

I beleive Don fell off Shreddie once on lead but was okay... but Im not sure.

I want to climb Shreddie.... who's leading?

[John Frieh]

I was talking about cryo and hydro (the upper of the two pics Buckaroo posted) but Id love to get on shreddie too.

 

Let me know when it's in and Ill lead

cool man.... when it doesn't touch down it goes at M7 with some bolts... I wouldn't mind trying that either.... but we may have to take turns leading

This is why you just solo it

 

Something like they do.
