I'm craving North Cascades views and with the good forecast we might have a chance to do something really fun. I'm thinking Eldorado or Mt. Baker, Ruth Mountain is another possibility.
I prefer 3 person rope team and it's just two of us so we're looking for one (maybe two) more team members.
We hike steadier moderate pace.
The trip will require full glacier gear including but not limited to:
ice axe
crampons
harness
carabiners
prussik
texas prussik
picket
glacier glasses
We plan to leave Seattle early on Saturday morning and hike to base camp where we will practice crevasse rescue and ice axe arrest if needed.
There will be an alpine start on Sunday morning.
And of course we will stop for dinner on our way home.
Anybody interested?
