Aaron2014 Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Hey, so i have 1 day left before i go back to school, and am hoping to spend it climbing. I could really use some suggestions on a place to go that can be done in 1 day (i'm pretty fit), and that also isn't highly technical (i'm going with someone that is really experienced, but i'm not quite there yet). Oh ya, and I forgot my rock climbing shoes at school so a snow climb would be best! Maybe something like Eldorado? Thanks! Aaron Quote
t_rutl Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Eldo, Sahale, Whitehorse, Sisters Range, Adams Those are fun one (long) day outings...nice to crash at the TH for the longer ones Quote
surferclimber Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 sulphide glacier on shuksan. 2nd that!!! sulphide area is great; the views from Shannon ridge alone are to die for Only question it is was said in the original post "before going back to school" is that end of august???? If so I'd pay good attention to the snow pak ( or lack there of ) that late in the season... but if you have somebody with you that knows the ropes I am sure they'll be able to spot & avoid snow bridges / crevasses etc I found this website through nps seems to get climbers updates randomly http://www.nps.gov/noca/planyourvisit/climbingcond_shuksan.htm Quote
Climb X Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 West Ridge of Stuart, approach shoes work just fine. Quote
j_b Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 Corkscrew on Sloan, West ridge on Forbidden, Fischer on Shuksan (or most anything on the North through SWest aspects), etc ... so many to list since almost everything can be done in a day. Quote
