climbaround Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 (edited) Trip: Mt. Pilchuck - Onion Peel Waterfall Date: 12/12/2009 Trip Report: Ice climbing on The Onion Peel waterfall, Mt. PIlchuck. See TR at NWH. [img:left]http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/3393/onionpeelice.jpg[/img] Gear Notes: Bring plenty of screws if you lead it, will need them for belay also. Approach Notes: It would be easiest to go up the spring skier's route (not the icy trail), then drop the gully down to the stream below the waterfall and approach from below. Firm snow walking should get you there in an hour. You won't be able to see the good ice until just below it because it is behind a rock corner. Would be a good two pitch lead - solid ice for screws.
