| Party of four up the east ridge and down the west ridge made for a fun day using all the gear, enjoying a little exposure and learning the true nature of the word "bushwhacking" | |

| A few frinds and I did this making my hands freezing while belaying everyone in a snowfall. | |

| A fun trip that took a lot longer than it should have. We were expecting the "year round stream", but of course it was dry. Fun trip for having to bush wack. | |

| Soloed up the West Ridge and down the East Ridge in half a day. A fun scramble, a couple exposed sections, but mostly easy. Rock is decent for Snoqualmie Pass. A good workout when you can't find a partner. | |

| Snow is starting to stick on the north facing aspects of the ridge. This makes for some sloppy and wet climbing. The slabby step (crux) was soaking wet and covered with a thin layer of melting snow. It's always fun when easy routes get a little spicy. Other than that, the traverse from Snoqualmie is fairly easy due to the talus being mostly covered in snow. Commonwealth Creek is running very high so watch out if you take that way out. | |

| My friends first alpine climb. I will never forget his disbelief when after walking for miles we finally got the mountain in sight and told him that was our destination way over there. He thought we were joking. A fairly pleasant route. | |

| With rain at Snoqualmie Pass my partner Chris and I ditched on our plans to do an overnight to climb Thomson and then ski Alaska out to Gold Ck. Instead we decided to ski Lundin. We cruised up Commonwealth Basin and stashed our skis at the col. The whole mountain was covered in snow (and clouds) which made the climbing fairly challenging, especially the exposed 4th class step. We belayed this section. After summiting, we rappelled the route and skied back down into Commonwealth Basin. Snow was better near the top, but it was all pretty wet. We brought a light rack, a 30m rope, and a few slings. Fun route to do in winter conditions. | |

| A very scary climb. Lots of exposure. The plaques on route commemorating people who had fallen from that spot are very disconcerting. Be careful on this one! | |

| Took the Cave Ridge approach. Lost the boot path so we travelled cross country to get to the base of the climb. Also the stream was bone dry due to a low snow year; made for a thristy return trip. Overall good climb. | |

| Great day for a climb, not a cloud in the sky. Lots of fun, but you have to be carefu there is a lot of exposue on this one. | |

| The approach wasn't real fun, but once we made it to the rock climb it was great. Overall a bit harder than I was expecting. Fun climb. | |
