Trip Report    

Basic Alpine Climb - White Chuck Mountain/Northwest Route

Long drive, short climb

  • Road recommended for high clearance only
  • Road is open to the trailhead at 4800'.  Low clearance vehicles may have some difficulty.  Brush has also been cleared back from the road.

    Some snow patches, but not on the rocks.  Ledges were mossy & wet and required care.  Slabs were dry, as was the downclimb to the notch.  We did not use a rope or any other climbing gear (other than helmets and ice axes)

     

     

6 hours of driving for a 6.5 hour climb.  Nice day, some high clouds.
