dberdinka Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 So I wander around the cascades and see shit and tell myself "I'm gonna come back and climb that" but I never do. So in the spirit of lovin, learning, sharing and caring (Oh J-Diddy where are you....) here's a short list of all that obscure stuff I've see that I'm never gonna get back too. Anybody else? (Come on get real are you ever going to really go do that route?). Have at, and post a TR..... Redoubt the northeast coulior that would be climbers left and around the corner from the northeast face. An early season mixed climb. Mox Peaks east face rock climb (OBVIOUS! and probably shit) ne face couliors (see photo SW BC backcountry skiing book, looks good!) GreyBeard a route climbers right of the Skoog route that starts in a deep coulior then zigzags to avoid cliff bands Black Peak The Complete NE ridge (the popular version only climbs the upper 25% of it if that). This one I still might actually go do. Goode Complete East Ridge (probably shit rock but a HUGE line) North Buttress (between the becky routes and the beebe (sp?) coulior you could climb rock without ever touching the glacier) Logan Lots of possibilities as evidenced by Wayne and Offwhites (??) adventures. A full traverse from the North Fork of Bridge Creek would be cool, so would the NE? ridge line as seen from the ragged ridge area. Slesse Heart of Darkness! Heart of Darkness! Bigwall route on east face right of the Isaac route that would lead directly to the upper buttress of NE face. It's there. Athetic and Direct. S Nesakwatch All them beautiful dihedrals right of the Spagnut/Neufield lines. Evidently they're grassy? Reagrdless they are the best looking lines on the face. Illusion Peaks SW Slabs on North Peak. Hard to get to but looks sweet. Chinese Puzzle Wall. Was it ever finished? Blueberry Hill direct line above western slabs to ridgetop the face north of the "Smoot Unknowing" route (or did the posse already jump on this one?) Quote
Lambone Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Not a FA, but I have allways gawked at the Norwiegan Buttress of Mt index. I'd love to try to repeat the Dorish route someday, or something new...looks wild. Quote
klenke Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Mox Peak, East Face has been discussed recently at around page 3 of this thread. Lowell posted a picture of the East Face on page 3. Quote
layton Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 damn you Darin damn you to hell. (and thanks). my list is the "rumors" section of the new WA ice guide. Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Mountains, schmountains. Where's the clip-ups? Quote
Peter_Puget Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 My project? Get slappy and crackbolter drunk and steal their secrets! Quote
lancegranite Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Three fingers east face, in winter the horror...the horror... Quote
Dru Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 All them beautiful dihedrals right of the Spagnut/Neufield lines. Evidently they're grassy? Reagrdless they are the best looking lines on the face. 1) You mean Neufeld/Struthers/Barg/Brayshaw/Spagnut/Cairns/Rose/Alez/Janez' girlfriend/Frimer/Burbee lines I think there's about 7 or 8 established lines or variations now 2) Isn't it surprising no one has climbed those dihedrals yet with all the activity? Take a lawnmower, weed whacker, trowel and gardening gloves. And knifeblades. Lotsa knifeblades. Quote

Off_White Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Exactly! Thats the one. Shouldn't it be enshrined (in small format) with all the others? It could be much more useful than snaffles or rolling eyes. Timm@y, you paying attention here? Quote
jordop Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Anythin on Banshee and Diablo in the Valhallas would be cool Quote
layton Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 there REALLY should be a new route forum so this crap don't get lost in obscurity Quote
EWolfe Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 michael_layton said: there REALLY should be a new route forum so this crap don't get lost in obscurity "Crap". Now there's a stunning recommendation... Quote

Cpt.Caveman Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 the winter effect on the difficult summer route will contrive enough interest wherever it is sometimes.. Quote

This one I still might actually go do. Do you mean the nice ridgeline that starts about a 1/2 mile north of pk 8395? I was up on 8395 a few weeks ago looking at that. What I could see looked like major choss - mostly straightforward looking, but very steep getting up to 8395. Quote
