Trip: Mt Stuart - Complete North Ridge

 

Date: 8/24/2010

 

Trip Report:

Not much to add to this often climbed route. Just thought I'd throw out some pictures and confirm that no crampons or ice axes are needed. Enjoy.

I'm trying to get into Jim Nelson's next guidebook

One question...the final 5.8 crack, is that the crack with the #3 camalot stuck in it? Fun climbing regardless.

Thanks for posting up a trip report, Kevino. It was great climbing with you on a classic route.

 

For all you peeps out there, Kevino is a great climbing partner: Fit, competent, laid back and gracious (i.e. didn't complain once about having to wait for my fat ass to catch up to him on the trail).

 

Next time he is looking for a partner, hook him up!

Just wondering if anyone was on the CNR last weekend, Fri & Sat (9/10-9/11)? We were hoping for a shot at it but were greeted by showers upon arriving at the trail head at 1 am Fri morning. We hiked up to Lake Ingals only to find it very wet, socked in and enough snow on the upper slopes of the few peaks we could see. Were the real hardmen still sending that day?

 

This is what it looked like for us...IMG_8748.JPG

 

The brief teaser window of hope.

Marmot.
