Glacier Peak Climb - White Chuck/Suiattle/Cool Glacier Route

Our climbing team of (3) from Colorado/Washington climbed the Southwest couloir on Goode Mountain from August 21-23, 2009. Starting from the North Fork Sauk River trailhead we backpacked into White Pass on August 21, 2009. We climbed Glacier Peak via the White Chuck, Suiattle and Cool glaciers on August 22 (~13 hr roundtrip from White Pass), and backpacked out on August 23.
