Kyle Smith Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 I'm no advanced mountaineer but I am an avid hiker and have some rock climbing experience. I will be doing st helens on september 7th and would love to bag adams as well before winter. Looking to see if anyone wants to summit via 2 day on south spur. Perferrably camp around the 8k mark to avoid the wind. Anyone interested? Quote
ElectricEric Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) Im planning on doing that (South Spur) the weekend of the 19-21. Was going to do it solo but would be down for some company. Edited August 8, 2011 by ElectricEric Quote
Adam Watts Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 I may be able to join in depending on work and other climbs. I'll keep you guys posted. I've climbed the South Spur last year and want to do it later in the season for more of a challenge. Quote
Kyle Smith Posted August 8, 2011 Author Posted August 8, 2011 Sounds like a plan to me. That should work out just fine. Are you wanting to do 2 days on south spur? Quote
ElectricEric Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I was planning on it just to spend some extra time in the outdoors. Quote
Kyle Smith Posted August 10, 2011 Author Posted August 10, 2011 Alright cool. You said the weekend of the 19-21st and that would be a mon tue wed if it was september that you wanted to do it. Were you meaning the weekend of the 23-25th in september or are you wanting to do it in august? Theres another guy that wants to do it the weekend of the 23-25th in september from summit post. You interested? Quote
Dave7 Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 i would be interested in doing adams the 23-25. I will be up in town for a couple weeks climbing Rainier and Baker and the 23-25 works in perfectly in my schedule if your interested in a third member Quote
ElectricEric Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 Actually I ment August, sorry. I work the 23-25 in September. Quote

Julie K Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Hey all -- Â Is Adams still a possibility in Sept? I'm looking to climb Adams...or maybe Glacier Peak in early-mid September. May dates somewhat flexible Sept 5-17. I've plenty of backpacking/backcountry skiing, but minimal climbing experience..so would be happy to compensate to those willing to take on a somewhat newbie.

Julie K Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Kyle--are you still up for company on St. Helens on Sept 7th? Quote
Kyle Smith Posted August 14, 2011 Author Posted August 14, 2011 Well the dates are pretty much set as far as I know. Fri sat sun september 23 24 25th. Camp out at the trailhead the 23rd, Hike up to around 8k and camp for the night. Then up early 25th for summit and back down for the rest of the day. So far its me, a guy I meet on summitpost, and my brother in law. Possibly another buddy if he can get his gear together. Just let me know. Â Â And yes for sure on mt st helens if you can still get a pass. I havent checked recently so Im not sure if theres any left. Let me know as well and we'll go from there. Quote
coleW Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 Julie, What routes are you looking to do on Adams or Glacier? I'm free most of the time throughout the dates you listed. Quote
