Trip: Stuart - West Ridge

 

Date: 10/24/2015

 

Trip Report:

On Saturday Kevin and I got to confirm my theory that the West Ridge of Stuart would be a fun route to do in funky, shoulder-season sort of conditions.

 

Sure, we had a couple "where are my crampons" moments on the north side traverse, but experience with the route above the W. Ridge notch, warm clothes and a profound eagerness to descend the Cascadian and then hike over Long's Pass in the dark were all helpful to making this a pretty fun day out in the hills.

 

A few pictures:

 

In the morning it was fall:

Then higher up it was winter:

And we got some sunshine on the top:
