Rumdoodle Ridge
Got my October grid slot and new route, taking Barr/Bottomless Pit/Rumdoodle Ridge/NW ridge. See TR. Cool route!

Same as Wawa.
Same as Wawa below me. Magnificent, challenging northeastern-ish approach. Perhaps as high as 50 degrees (temperature, not slope) at the summit.

Northeastern Class 3 Route
I took the Barr Trail in and then scrambled up some ridiculously dangerous and seemingly discarded Northeastern Class 3 route above treeline. There were some old cairns, not many. Not recommended in winter. Came down the much safer Barr Trail.
What we climbed might have been part of the Rumdoodle approach.

Pikes Summit
Took the easy way up. Was cold and windy.

Never, NEVER before had I climbed a peak before and bought a souvenier on the summit at the gift shop! : ) WTF?

Barr Trail
First summit of the year. Great clear day. Only hiker on the mountain.

Barr Trail Run
Fun, easy day. Was a bit long-winded though!

bottomless pit
Great snow route. Camped at Barr and went up through bottomless pit, Y coulior route. Had a hamburger on top and glisaded down the trail side back to Barr. Was an awesome day aside from some blisters on the way out from Barr.

Barr Trail
Beautiful hike with perfect weather. Over 7,000 gain, but well worth the effort. Hiked with Steve, Hootie, and HM. Cheated and took the train down.
We took the Tahoe method. We also tagged Devil's Playground.

Crags
After reaching the top on car and train this was my first time hiking up. Took the Crags trail up, no issues along the way. Unique look along the way - only bikes were allowed on the road today.

With a legend
Hiked up from the Crags with an 81-years young friend. Beautiful blue skies.
The road is being resurfaced thus we encountered a ton of heavy construction equip. at 13K or so, and a guy who had driven his brand new Subaru straight into a ditch. Highly entertaining and a good day all around.

Northeast ridge
Continued my pursuit of climbing Pikes in every month via a variety of routes. Did the northeast ridge with an approach from Cascade via the Heizer Trail. The northeast ridge is plenty of fun, with lots of class 3 and 4 scrambling. We left Barr Trail at around 12700 feet. Some towers cannot be climbed without a rope. Routefinding is tedious though and getting cliffed out is a concern. I hope to put a route page up for this fine option to Barr Trail.
