builder206 Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 I’d like to meet up with someone in August to do some alpine stuff. I am past the beginner stage but not well-seasoned. I can lead .6 and follow most .8, some .9. I have a tick list that’s III / 5.easy: Cutthroat / S Face Cutthroat / SE Butt Dorado Needle / SW Butt Dragontail / N Face, Hidden Couloir Eldorado / S Face Johannesburg / NE Rib McMillan Spire / N Face of W Spire Nooksack Tower / NE Face Triumph / NE Ridge If you’re game maybe we could do a crag day to check the vibe before jumping in. I have a rope and a lot of pro. I have trips scheduled every weekend now through Aug. 10 but after that I am open. For a crag day I could get out after work on a weekday, E 38 or Index. Quote
mkporwit Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Mike, I'm looking at doing Triumph, either via the NE or NW ridge sometime in August... ping me then. Quote
catbirdseat Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Mike, some of those climbs are a LOT harder than others. Save JBerg and Nooksack for last. A fun climb that will help you improve your efficiency would be Pika Peak. It's long but easy (ca. 9 pitches) with a fairly easy approach. Quote
builder206 Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 bump maybe one of these Cutthroat / S Face Cutthroat / SE Butt McMillan Spire / N Face of W Spire Triumph / NE Ridge Quote
