Trip: Castle Peak - NW Ridge

 

Date: 9/21/2011

 

Trip Report:

Josh and I spent five days paddling, portaging, hiking, scwacking, and climbing to nab one of Washington's most remote summits. Here is our story:

Gear Notes:

boat and tennies

 

Approach Notes:

Castle trail turnoff is marked by a sign to Hozomeen (shown in vid), although it's invisible at that point. The trail itself is blown out by a slide for the first several hundred yards. It's decent after that save for the last two miles which have been obliterated by avalanches.

other than wanting a remote and cool trip involving paddling, how come you didn't go in via manning park?

 

Let's just say certain legal issues had to be considered when planning this trip...

:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

 

it's always wise to have a plan b when planning a climbing trip to canuckistania :)
