S Butress, K Cracks  Sucess!

Climbed the S. Buttress (with K Cracks last pitch) as the first of three routes on three consecutive days in the Cirque. We had GREAT weather, and the climbing was super-relaxed. Alpine cragging!

South Buttress  Sucess!

Easy but beautiful climb on incredibly solid rock. It started showering/hailing as we topped out. NE Face, you're next.

Sweet Route  Sucess!

SE Buttress... Really awesome climb. Great quality rock. We did it in 4 pitches though... 8 seems like it would take forever.

South Buttress  Sucess!

Climbed it twice the week I was there. Wished I had tried the K-Kracks? I love the granite

Northeast Face - Spectacular Route

An amazing line up an even more impressive peak. Full value for the grade. Be wary of the easy chimney...

Awesome climb!  Sucess!

A classic climb! We summited at about 12:30 avoiding a thunder storm by about 1/2 hour. I especially loved the upper pitches. See my trip report, if interested.

NE Face  Sucess!

I wasn't feeling it that morning, but we got 'er done anyway. This time we did the last pitch to the NE summit. Once again we had this route to ourselves on a cloudless day. Then we watched crowds lined up on it for the rest of our time in the Cirque. Strange.

S> buttress  Sucess!

One of the best climbs at that grade that I've done. Killer views of Wolf's head, awesome weather, no mosquitos, no rain, good partner. What more do you want?

Impressive Towers

Attempted to do the climb from the trailhead in one day. Rapped off of Pitch 5- ran out of time. The area was very crowded with hikers, climbers, fishermen.
