tvClimber Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Trip: Mt. Baker - North Ridge (condition update) Date: 7/27/2014 Trip Report: Quick notes on route condition. Currently the Coleman Glacier crossing is still reasonable with no crevasse hoping at moment (6500ft is where most of the traversing was). Once across going up the hourglass is your best shot. Two parties that went around got stump and turned back. Currently, you can climb up to the Moat/berg below the hourglass head right and easily walk in and out of it (I am guess this will be good for at least a few weeks). The ice climbing part is in great shape! Ice had more of water ice feel to it down low and didn't turn into snow until halfway up the football field above. Bring screws you will use them. The traverse to the summit is also in great shape. Walking out sucks of course but the beer at car is great! Hope this helps - Go out and get some climbing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
