Voted 10/10 | Fantastic shot! Mount Washington was one of the most fun climbs I did last year. And this is the best pic I've seen of that long ridge. A friend of mine had a near death experience and fall on the traverse. She got lucky. When Redwic and I saw the ridge for the first time from Ellinor, we decided to descend all the way to the car before beginning Washington. | | Posted Jun 21, 2010 1:16 am |

Hasn't voted | That traverse can be absolute death if you aren't prepared for it. Slipped and fell 10 feet one time and haven't tried it since, considering we were without any kind of ropes or protection. Definitely won't try it without more substantial gear next time. | | Posted Jan 21, 2011 3:27 am |
