Great photos!

Thanks for adding this route and all the cool shots. Hope to climb it some day. Attempted Green Butte last winter, but bailed out before reaching Sargent's. Long, non-technical slog with a lot of rock and very little snow, at least when I was there. It was slow and painful. Looks your climb was much more enjoyable (except for that white-out).

Re: Great photos!

Thanks. Winds were about 50mph on the summit, and it sounded like a freight train at night, but it wasn't too bad while we were climbing. There are so many stories about people having to turn around because of the wind/weather. We lucked out.
