Wow, what an awesome trip report, I relived the frustration on snow and scree around Pt 9761, the fun pitches on Perch, and yes the mad run down to the boat dock (I won't do that run again with a heavy pack). Hopefully we can go back for more. Thank you!!
Thanks a lot Martin!! It was a pretty cool weekend. I really enjoyed your Olympic pictures from the same weekend - sometime I need to check that mountain out!
Thanks for posting the write up and photos. Sitting here in the office full of customer orders and reading your account sure makes one want to load the truck, lock the door and go climbing. Loved it.

The Mountaineer's Rt is not one of the "50 classics," at least not the ones Steck and Roper popularized (see intro paragraph). This route is sometimes confused as such due to the naclassics website.
