Glacier Peak questions
Posted: Sat Jul 31, 2010 12:37 amHello,
Wondering current conditions for Glacier Peak. Planning on heading up the From the North Sauk Trail. Is the road passable to the trailhead? Are there any major creek crossings to be aware of?
I was planning on avoiding rope travel. Is this in shape for unroped travel? Is it not preferable to head straight up Disappointment Peak? Or should we head around to the Cool Glacier? If so, is the glacier fairly safe for unroped travel? I do have glacier travel experience. I just don't know the condition of the glaciers/route.
Will be heading there monday-wednesday.
Thanks,
Thatcher
