Another nice sail on Port Gardner Bay, nice winds and whales, again!
Fun one day climb of the awesome Baker North Ridge. We carried skis up and skied down the Coleman Deming route and out the Grouse Creek drainage.
Spring ski into the Silver Star Creek basin.
Fun snow scramble through mature forest capped by a ridge run to the summit.
Rainy + Wet hike up to Miller peak. Overflowing stream crossings and some wild flowers - to add to the mix.
One day climb of the Tooth via South Face with a team of 7.
Good to Get Out: Goat Island Mountain
Climbed south ridge, difficult routefinding on ridge, mixed rock and snow, several snowslopes to cross, used ice axe, steep 3rd+ class 250' summit climb, two rappels to get down.
Successful early season overnight climb of Mount Cruiser.
Memorial Day scramble up Mt. Wow from Goat Creek directly up a WSW ridge. We did not traverse south over to the Boundary Trail.
This was a good scramble on a pleasant day, but would have been better with more snow.
An interesting trip with beautiful woods and great views.
Wet weather scotches summit, limits views, but wildflowers abound
Carbon River Road was a really gorgeous hike despite the rain.
Ascended Foss Peak via Unicorn Creek in continuous fog and intermittent rain and snow.
Ethereal alpine flowers glowed intensely in spite of (or possibly because of?) the challenging summit conditions: drifting fog/clouds, wet snow, and cold winds.
This was an unsuccessful but educational attempt of Barrier Peak, which was an alternate to Mt. Ruth due to an unfavorable weather forecast.
We switched the location from Meany Crest in hopes of being drier.
