Via North Ridge  Sucess!

Due to it being a higher avy day with the rapidly warming temps, decided to give this one a shot. I was not a huge fan of the other routes up this mountain, especially since the resort is still open. We started from Yodelin parking lot and went straight up to Mount Weird. From there, followed the ridge to the summit. Easy peasy. The ridge was very scenic with great views. Mind a few of the bigger cornices...

Great Day Out!  Sucess!

Very good weather with decent snow conditions. Right now it's in it's prime. I also climbed with Eastking a year ago with foggy weather.

It's Nice  Sucess!

Finally got around to this one. Josh Lewis and I took the direct route up the Big Chief lift slope. It's a very nice snowshoe. Short distance and lovely views.

Cold day on Big Chief  Sucess!

Made the summit just days before the ski area opened and it was blowing like crazy and really cold

Wild West Traverse  Sucess!

I summited Big Chief Mountain first, then Cowboy Mountain second, via the ridge connecting the two peaks. I was shocked how open and straightforward the summit route for Big Chief Mountain was, but surprised at how steep and rugged the summit route for Cowboy Mountain was (via this traverse). Fog ruined most of the potential views from the two summits.
