A few weeks ago we took a chance on the weather and went for it! finding the trail head was hell and was not where i was told it was. Anyways we finialy found but lost lots of time. From that point on staying with the trial was very difficult, we would find it then lose it then find it and so on. At one point we took the wrong turn and ended up in the middle of the 2 ridges. But it was to late in the day to have time to climb out because it was 2 feet of snow. So we turned back :( will be going again soon though!!
During the past few years, it seemed like I had seen this mountain from each side (N, S, W, E). It's about time I did it. Decent weather with some clouded-over views. I also took some time to do some backcountry recon the same day.
25 Degrees Below Freezing Date Climbed: Dec 6, 2009
A fun snow climb with Raymond. My thermometer was reading 7 degrees Fahrenheit on the summit. We ran into David Opus and Type E from NWHikers.com in the lookout.
