Description
Looking for partner or small party for Glacier National Park early September. Climbing window is 06 through 13 September . Targets are the western 10,000 peaks - Kintla or Stimson. You should be a strong backpacker / camper / class 4 scrambler with appropriate Rocky Mountain experience (Elks, San Juans, Wind Rivers, Tetons, Canadian Rockies). I dont see the need for a rope on these routes, maybe a can of pepper spray ! Me - 50 years young, very experienced, not as fast as I used to be but still holding my own in the backcountry. Currently living / working internationally, now making firm plans for my September vacations.

GaryVischy | Might be interested | |
| I have a month off from mid-August to mid-Sept. and was interested in getting up some peaks in GNP. I summited Merritt last summer and am interested in Cleveland, Jackson, Stimson, St. Nick...
Very experienced and fit.
Saw you made an attempt on Robson and am interested in climbing that peak too.

wingfooted | Any more ? | |
| Contacted Kevin, he seems keen. Anyone else interested ? Stimson /Kintla are a long ways from no where. Party of 3 or 4 would be ideal. | Posted Aug 14, 2006 5:38 pm |
bergsheil | How many do you have? | |
| I may be free the 8th thru 14th. I have plans to do a backpack
trip over the Swan Crest (Sawn Range) MT. However my partner
might bail on me. Would love to join you in GNP for some scrambles. Where would you be on the 8th or 9th? I would have to
meet up with you then.
Cheers,
