I can't find any reference online to a high route traverse connecting high pass to tenpeak lake. Is that just a crazy impossible traverse or... ?

Looking for recommendations; after climbing Hood (South Side), all Three Sisters (Collier, Hayden and SE Ridge on Middle), Broken Top, Adams, Unicorn Peak, Shasta, Mt Washington, St Helens (once in winter), Mt Ellinor in winter, Three Fingered Jack, Thielsen and some more minor peaks and climbing at Smith Rock for nine months, what would be good peaks to do or climbing destinations to visit that would test my skills where I could safely and gradually ...

I need climbing friends. I'm a novice, I don't own gear, I've never even been on a wall. I just like to bushwhack up whatever mountains i can find at my local state park. I'm bored I guess. yea

I made some of the requested changes regarding areas under development, had fun talking about it on the Becoming Human podcast, shipped copies to all the backers and now the book (drum roll) is available to all while stocks last, so if you fancy checking an utter ton of moderate friendly info on sport crags here, near here, and worth taking a trip to over there, well snag your copy via…

Covid/Fires...2020.. a year to live through... anyone have first hand experiences with being up one of these trails this year?

Hey everyone,

Just wondered whether anyone knew any climbing company offering climbs to Mt. Rainier in early September? I appreciate it's late in the day and all of the ones I've checked are full already.

I'm also open to having a private guide or joining an existing expedition!

I'm from Chamonix in France and have quite extensive climbing / mountaineering experience :)

Cheers!

In town roughly through the end of August and would love to find some mountaineering partners. Hoping to summit some of the mountains in the cascades, including Rainier and Baker.

I bring a positive ...

Took a quick hike up to Table Mountain summit!!!! My only peak this year during Covid. Did it solo too.... Imagine that... from this photo I was wondering about anyone on or near the summit of Baker. Interesting day, great day out for me.

If anyone is interested, I'm going to be climbing South or Middle Sister Labor Day weekend. If you are interested in coming, you are welcome to join. Otherwise, I'll just be solo, plus everyone else on the mountain of course!

Hi all

I am coming up to Portland to meet a friend who is traveling in her van. We want to either car camp / long day hike or one 2-3 day backpack. If you only had a week up there what would be her suggestions especially with easy permits etc.
