i'm curious if anyone's done any of these routes or has pictures of them from nearby vantage points. i'm most interested in pics around late august. option 1: ridge option 2: east buckner glacier option 3: buckner glacier option 4: south ridge i think the "normal" route from park creek pass would be the booker buckner col. but, there's a shrund that forms mid-summer that could likely prevent passage, especially in a lower snow year like we're having now. thanks

Did S Ridge/S face a long time ago. Came at it from Sahale arm as I recall. Straight forward and easy with typical route finding fun etc on ridges. I remember the rock as being Ok. Nothing horrid, nothing great either. Typical Cascade ridge. No pics, was before the age of the digital camera. Not much help. Sorry.

I'd have to dig deep for photos (slides) but if I remember correctly you don't get a view of the route from the pass... Maybe someone posted a TR of a route from that side??

I'm curious about this as well. Does anyone have any experience accessing the Booker-Buckner Col from the Park Creek side after the schrund opens up? Is there a feasible rock bypass?
