Trip: Mt St Helens 2013 - Worm Flows Spring Climbing:

 

Date: 5/12/2013

 

Trip Report:

Hey! Im back again with another session of Mt. St Helens! 2nd Summit of the season! Glad to have been back! In march, it was harder and i was not feeling good. This time i felt great and amazing! Glad to have gone back and triumphed! I went with a climbing buddy from CC. I usually stop a lot but im glad i did not. A good hard push can help you a lot. Made the summit around 5 hours. About 650 permits were issued on the 11th. I did not count 650 on the summit, but there might have been 150 on the summit. Good Weather and light winds made it awesome! Another great climb and looking forward to a lot more climbing the summer!
