Hyas Basin
This was a great weather day as we were able to have a pleasant climb of Daniel on snow for much of the off-trail.

Hyas Glacier
Being in the 'general area' after climbing Argonaut Peak, bagged Mt. Daniel via the Hyas Creek Glacier Headwall in a single long day.
Climbed this as a final "student-led" objective for a 13-day mountaineering course. What a great climb! The views of Rainier, Baker and other peaks were outstanding. Shared the summit with great friends. It appears that all the glaciers on this mountain are disappearing. This was a sobering realization.
Still one of my favorites. Saw two 5-year olds at the top. Total hardcores.

Southeast Ridge
This was a great climb on a beautiful day. A long dayhike that took me about 10 hours via the Cathedral Rock Trailhead.

perfect weather!
went up SE ridge and did the middle and west peaks. what an excellent climb! topped it off with a dip in peggy's pond and mexican food at el caporal in cle elum.
Fun trip. Went in via Peggys Pond. Summited 3 of the 5 peaks. Clouds began to break up as we ascended the true summit giving us views of Hinman, and a peak at pea soup lake.We dedided to make a loop of it.Our descent took us down past Jade and Spade lakes, visiting deadhead lake and back out past deep lake.

Camped at Peggy's pond, and summited the next day in a white-out. The route finding put us on fourth class terrian trying to connect the lower and upper glaciers. No view that day.
Route Climbed: Southeast Ridge Date Climbed: 10/23/05
Spent the night at Peggys pond. Great weather on the way up till I hit the southern saddle of the eastern summit. No views while on top of the true summit. But the weather cleared again as I descended. On my descent I dropped across the snowfield and traversed the granite slabs and loose choss on the nothern side of the Hyas glacier. Beautiful area.

What a climb! This was one of the better hikes I've ever done, thanks to beautiful weather and a great mix of scenery. We camped at Peggys Pond and started up first thing in the morning. I wasn't expecting the route from the main trail to Peggys Pond to be so hairy. I definately want to come back here.

a very enjoyable climb made a day trip out of it it was about 8 hours car to car. the actual climb was a bit short but very enjoyable with awesome scenery. descended via the southeast ridge i think doing the loop is the best option could make a weekend out of it and enjoy what the area has to offer maybe also make a trip up cathedral rock. safe journeys
