Finally!  Sucess!

Mike Zach and I finally made it to the top. This was my 2nd attempt this year and Mike's 5th overall. Great conditions and the scree wasn't as bad as we thought it would be except just below the false summit where it was terrible. Exactly a year ago today Mike, Zach and I climbed Breitenbach.

Super Gully  Sucess!

Very steep and direct mountain. Terrible scree pile in gully though. Took about 1,000 vert ft of good snow in gully. Then left to SE ridge. Main summit ridge was very exhilerating being so narrow with a knife-edge crest of snow going to the high point. Amazing.

rotten snow  Sucess!

still plenty of snow in the Supergully and up high. However, the snow was all rotten making for some tedious going.

Super Gully  Sucess!

First trip into the Lost River's. It was everything as advertised.
Thanks to Glacier National Park and all of it's loose, cruddy rock which prepared me well for this outing.
The scree skiing was second only to Goat Mountain in GNP.

Lost River Peak  Sucess!

Had a great climb. Met a new climbing partner and enjoyed all the mountain had to offer. Would have liked to hit the second summit but I just didn't have the energy. This was my second 12'er, with any luck I will finish all of them this decade!

While at school  Sucess!

The 12er goal thing never appealed to me until I had just 2 left, so I made a gonzo dash for the LRR after dropping off my son at school and scurried up Super Gulley and enjoyed the windless summit ridge. The Super Gulley had 1200 feet of soft, but still good snow left. New large Ice Sickles in the canyon started falling off and crashing around me during the climb- they were gone by the descent.

Where I met Superman!  Sucess!

Superman a.k.a. Skunk Ape flew in out of dark places and dragged my can up to high places. That man...was awesome!

South Face Super Gully  Sucess!

Great route up the Gully with hard stable snow...certainly beats the talus.

Super Gully  Sucess!

Had good weather all day. Great climb up the Super Gully. The bottom and top of the gully were dry but the middle was still full of snow. Lots of loose rock below the top of the ridge. Awesome views in all directions from the summit. Going down the steep scree made for a fast descent.

Sweet Super Gully  Sucess!

Had perfect conditions for a snow climb, can’t imagine doing this peak later in the summer with all that scree. We were able to glissade down nearly 2000 vertical feet of super gully in just a couple minutes. It was a blast. Here’s a write up and some photos.

Route Climbed: Variation of Super Gully Date Climbed: June 22, 2003  Sucess!

Started out in the gulch to the west of super gully trying to reach the summit of Britenbach. We ended up cliffing out, and traversed across the base and up the gully. Encountered snow, but had our axes.



Was a pyscho day. Cold, windy, hot, snowy, sunny.



Summited out in the early afternoon, had lunch and then began the traverse across towards Britenbach. Had to backtrack several times, and when we finally made it out it was about 9 pm and we still had to drive back to Boise.



Great climb with my girlfriend and my buddy Nate see the trip report.
