Liberty Ridge 06/08

by pchernik » Mon Jun 16, 2014 7:33 pm

Starting from White River trailhead on 06/08, 3 of us went up Liberty Ridge and summitted on 06/11, with a bivouac at 13,300 ft on 06/10 (we belayed-climbed too many ice pitches and ran out of daylight). We spent over 5 hours digging out the platform...

The climbing conditions were good, with snow and lots of ice on the face by Black Pyramid.

The bergschrund top out was a snow climb.

We spent the night at the summit, then another night at Camp Sherman.

Weather was good the entire time.

I meant this as a combination of conditions report and quick trip report. If it doesn't belong here, I'd like to fix that, but I'm not sure how to move it :oops:

This was meant as both trip and conditions report. Apologies if it's in the wrong place.
