Coleman-Deming  Sucess!

Great climb... very good weather. Left around 1:15am, summited around 6am. Quite a few open crevasses between 8000' and 9000'.

Coleman-Deming Route  Sucess!

Great climb. Many snowbridges still solid even late in the day. Perfect weather for the climb.

Roman Wall  Sucess!

Spent the first night below Black Buttes. Awoke at 12AM and after crossing a few snow bridges, reached the summit via the Roman Wall at 7:15 AM. It was a little hairy coming down the Roman Wall. Saw some people belaying down it. That might be a good way to go. Perfect weather conditions all weekend, almost no wind and not a cloud in the sky for hundreds of miles.

Coleman Demming  Sucess!

Fun route, did this to get ready for Mt. Rainier. This was much more fun and less people. Great mountain.

Coleman-Deming  Sucess!

Climbed the route with my brother from a camp at ~6800 ft. We took 7 hours round-trip and then descended back to the trailhead with some fun glissading. Snow conditions on the Roman Wall were a bit poor with a breakable crust over looser snow which made for tough progress. Otherwise, an easy route with no crevasse issues.

Demming Route  Sucess!

Climbed with college buddies. Improper fitting Asolo boot rental -toughed it out. We came close to walking off the damn Demming Glacier wall! Perhaps it was the vapors...wild times...keep on rockin in the free world!

Easton Glacier  Sucess!

Lots of bugs down low. I remember this only spured us on to get away from them. The railroad grade was a killer. Camping at the foot of the glacier, we could hear it creek and groan, with an occasional CRACK now and then. The morning of the climb we were treated to the most awesome display of Northern Lights I have ever seen. Awesome climb past the vents to the summit, with a long glissade back down.

Route Climbed: Coleman Glacier  Sucess!

I'll never do a glacier climb like this in May again. Wading through waist-deep snow was exhausting. A long, hot day. I was extremely jealous of everyone who had brought skis along.

Route Climbed: Easton Glacier Date Climbed: July 15, 2005

Summited late due to altitude sickness of some tripmates and had to return in slushy conditions. Fell halfway in a crevasse that gave way as I jumped across. Absolutely amazing clear weather. Great fun!
