Long day for a very short climb. Approach is very sandy and full of rock fall hazards. We found route finding to be a little challenging in places.
Great set up, but we were missing one very important thing. The wind.
Thank you weather gods - great crew - routes is in prime shape. Love the Tooth!
Wonderful early season hike and backpack through rolling forest trail along the river. Great riverfront camp sites.
Another pleasant sunset hike high above the shoreline.
Lovely evening for sunset walk on the bluff and the beach with 15 hikers.
Excellent trip with great views all day, although the descent in soft snow got to be a bit tedious.
Successful scramble to Silver Lining, the gorgeous panoramic highpoint on the ridge in the center of the bowl on the north side of Silver Peak.
Full alpine experience with spring conditions keeping the approach via Cave Ridge interesting.
Great trip, 2 little peaks, warm weather, long day
Wow, another great sail, another late season showing for the Gray Whale repeat visitors. We had a pleasant sail in 7 to 12 knots of wind, made all points of sail and had 45 minutes of whale watching wind the wind finally die.
Stellar route and crew for a special trip.
not much snow till will over 4k, excellent snow on the ridge to summit
Long, strenuous, but beautiful trip to Mt. Jupiter with great views of The Brothers, Mount Constance, and eastern Olympics.
Birds, wildflowers and views on a hot day.
A nice trip in less than ideal snow conditions to a Rainier 100 peak with outstanding views and lots of solitude.
