Whatcomboy Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) Trip: Liberty Bell - Beckey Route Date: 7/4/2011 Trip Report: We climbed Liberty Bell on Monday in sunny weather. Been wanting to climb this beauty for some time now. Trail is snow all the way and the steep gully was hard packed snow in the morning where the ice ax came in handy. There was a couple of parties on the rock when we got there. Four of us so we split into two and enjoyed solid rock that takes pro real well. Got a bit off route on pitch #3 that added to the fun. The summit is big and roomy for lounging on and mountain gazing. Down climbing to the short slab lets you walk to a big ledge for rap chains. 2 raps gets you down to the top of the gully. Only bad part was Good Food closed early for the 4th.(so did everybody else).
