JeffreyR Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Does anyone know of a successful winter ascent of Mt Olympus? The Olympic Mountain climbing guide states that there are no known summits, but several attempts. Seems like a worthy objective. Quote
Maxtrax Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 If there was much snow at all there are a few places between Elk Lake and Glacier Meadow that would have very high avy hazard, not to mention the snow dome which is around 30 deg most of the way. Other than that I think it would be fairly straight forward though. My uneducated guess is that the crux would be timing the approach for stable avy conditions and not missing your weather window.
