Mountain suggestions for late October

[climbinsimeon]

I'm looking for late October route suggestions in the Cascades. I'll have 2-3 days available and have learned from previous trips that timing is everything. I'm looking for something mellow: low 5th class rock (like 5.2-5.4), alpine grades I- II, Could anybody suggest a peak with a route that's likely in season for late October?

 

Thanks for your suggestions

Pick something south facing and come prepared for snowy rock.

Maybe Ingalls Pk?

have a backup plan. seasonal forcast and general feel in the air is for a early winter.

multiple back-up plans. Have one be in the West side or crest (tooth or Mt thompson) one on the east side, enchantments or WA pass? and one in the desert like cragging at Vantage, tieton, or banks lake.

Ingalls can be nice that time of year. And of course the ever-popular Tooth...

Black Peak

You might have some of the best mixed climbing conditions at the time. Colfax would be in shape, some of the N facing routes on Baker and other higher peaks.

Well he could come for some shit that's not going to be in or he could come prepared for the routes and conditions that will be enjoyably climbable at the time...
