Camping the night before sounds good to me. Coming from Issaquah, so easy to meet at Eastlake P&R or another convenient location. |
Do you want to meet somewhere and ride together on the way up seeing as HIT is out?
Anybody else? I'm in Capitol Hill.

I don't know the etiquite of the traveling summit registers, but I there are numerous peaks along our trip. We talked about Cannon being a little "airy," but there's also Enchantment Peak, Little Annapurna & Dragontail. Having said that, I think hitting all of those would take a pretty fast speed & sturdy legs (though I was hoping for 3 of the 4 myself).
No worries if you can't make it though. I'm sure you'll have a great time wherever you go! |
If we could hit a peak or two, that would be great. I was actually thinking of Little Annapurna. It was recommended by some fellows I met up on Townsend. Is Little Annapurna a route from the route we are supposed to do Saturday? If so, I could start the hike with everyone and then head off on my own to there? That would be good. It would sure beat Dirty Face again.

Little Annapurna is a pretty easy scramble that's right along our route. I'm sure others will be interested in doing it with you. We can find a way. I think I'd rather hit Dragontail (I've been to lil' Anna), in which case we could all meet up at the top of Aasgard to head down.
The point - we have options.

Sounds good... I can deal with that. We can work out the details during the course of the week.

I'm not committed to any particular peak or route. I've never been in the area and just want to go up something convenient while we're there. So Cannon, Dragontail, Annapurna, or whatever else all sound good. I don't think I'm physically capable of getting all in one day, though.

Looks like our group is me, Kyle Flick (a buddy of mine that posts on cascadeclimbers), HiT, Yowzer & ONLUV1. I have a couple other buddies that may join us.
Great group!
Just making sure everyone knows - we'll meet at the Leavenworth Park & Ride at 5:45am Saturday the 31st. The Park & Ride is easy to find, it's right on hwy 2 between Cashmere Valley Bank and the Forest Service.
My non-nwhikers name is Brad Blackburn, I'll be rockin' my blue outback. I'm actually a tiny little dude (THM makes me chuckle every time and has given those that know me a laugh or two). If you need to contact me last minute, my cell is 509-860-1929.
Sounds like the weather will be great, so sunblock & sunglasses will be mandatory (don't wanna be your Mama - sorry, just being thorough). It also sounds as though it'll be buggy. Ugh.. I expect this to be an all day affair so I'll have a headlamp. Lastly, I think at least an ice axe will be needed. We'll be looking at a steep snow descent to Coney Lake, a steep climb from Coney Lake up to the Druid Plateau & then a steep snow descent from the Druid Plateau to the Lorelei Lakelets.
Good times! I'm excited to meet you all!

Does anyone have a spare ice ax I can borrow?

Sorry - I'm already borrowing one 
You were doing 7FJ without an ice axe? I thought that was pretty steep & a little cliffy in places.

Yes... no ice ax was needed though. The sun was on my side!

If it doesn't put us over the group limit, I'm still interested in this one. If it does, no worries, I'll find something else.

I think we'll be ok Kyle. You make 8 if all 3 of my other friends make it (I'm guessing only one does though).
Great to have you!
