| Crux: getting a permit to camp at Colchuck Lake. This was a fine alpine route... tricky route-finding on the lower buttress. We soloed to the base of the excellent finger crack, and climbed 3 pitches before unroping for the rest. | ||

| Climbed it with Vivian D. I climbed it without rock shoes, made it much harder. This is a full on alpine climb, really liked all the pitches, nice variety. We did it in 2 days, bivied past the summit ridge outside of the permit zone. Then we descended the snowfield without axes or crampons. | ||

| Didn't find the start, got off route several times, went climber's right once we hit the death gulley and that cost us big. Very hard vertical hand/ringlock cracks at the final headwall (summitted at midnight). Snow froze on Asgard during the descent. Hugged the East Buttress- big mistake in approach shoes on a glacier. 6 snow bollard raps later... 25 hours car to car. Sheesh, we suck. | ||

| Partners: John Middleton, Allen Thorstenstein. Joe Hahler & Ruth Martin in the same party, on a separate rope. This was my 1st really LONG climb -- the day I learned the meaning of "commitment". Loved the chickenheads. Loose rock ~3/4 way up -- falling thru what we termed "Death Gulley". 11hrs-45min to summit, incl. being off route for the last technical pitch & needing to reverse selves. | ||
