Three Fingers at dawn from... [ Sizes: Orig | Med | Small | Thumb ]
 Three Fingers at dawn from...

Three Fingers at dawn from our miserable snow cave in a wind-funnel notch near the summit. Western Washington is known for mild winters, but in January '82 we had 2 or 3 weeks of hard freeze. Here, it's about -10F. and two of our party already have shallow frostbite. Read all the gory details in the Trip
Report

Mount Rainier is 94 miles south.

you guys are animals! Great trip report. This baby is very underrated as both you and I know. Any time you want to do it again, I'm on!

My sorry knees wouldn't get me to the glacier now. It's a hell of a trip to have done, though. Memorable, too. In fact, the only notes I used to write the report were the dates on my slide frames. Some things just kinda stand out. Like the things you almost die from. (Hope I'm not reducing your chance to find a partner.)

Hey Don, I'll do it with you if we can figure out a good time. Maybe sometime this spring? I'm sure I could get Duane to join us too. I'd need a weekend day, however, not a weekday. -Bob

Sure, let's put it together. I'd love to get back up there with someone who knows what he's doing!
