North Cascades Alpine partner for August

[Justin_RR]

Seeking experienced partner for an alpine climb or two in the North Cascades during the month of August. A romp up Baker, an overnighter to Dome, the Torment-Forbidden Traverse...

 

Technical rock (to 5.9, 5.10), steep snow, glacier travel all sound tasty.

 

Me: 29 year old male. Climbing in the mountains for 10 years. School has kept me from getting out a lot recently so my rock skills aren't as sharp as they have been, but still up for leading 5.8/9 in the backcountry. I have been on my cardio game and stoked to haul pack long and hard (I'm no iron man, but like to keep a good pace).

 

My background includes climbing in the Sierra, Cascades, and Rockies, everything from volcanoes (Rainier, etc.), to extensive multipitch trad leading and simuling (lead up to 5.10; routes like Outer Space, Breakfast of Champions); bigwalls in Yosemite; ice climbing (lead to WI4); alpine rock (N. ridge of Stuart, etc.), steep snow (N. Face of Buckner, etc.).

 

I'd be looking for a partner with a comparable background. Maybe a day of cragging to get to know each other before we tackle something more committing.

 

PM me or feel free to call/text: 206-552-9480.
