Aaaaah!

I climbed the Emmons Glacier route in 2000. Awesome experience!

Re: Aaaaah!

I climbed the Emmons on June 2, 2009 ... this photo is from my attempt last year ... we were weathered off at around 13,300'. This year - no wind!!!

thanks!

Well, I just summited Mt. Hood on Sunday night, so that was next on the list - and glad that it is out of the way ... the climb up the ski slope was deathly boring. Now I've got to do Shuksan and Olympus. I'm doing a repeat climb of Mt. Adams this summer (w/ a friend who hasn't climbed it yet), and probably a repeat of Mt. Baker (with another friend who hasn't climbed it). WA has enough climbing to keep me busy indefinitely!!! :)

Re: thanks!

Oh hey, I'd missed your reply. Guess you won't want to do Hood again! =) Shuksan is so beautiful! Looks like a great climb, too. Dang, just thinking about those beautiful Washington peaks is getting me excited. One more killer summer in my beloved Sierras, then it's off to reacquaint myself with the snow and ice of the Cascades and Olympics. Can't wait! Where do you do your rangering?
