Ascent Notes for: route One - PD Average Rating : 4.50/5

One of my favorite climbs. Plenty of snow late in the summer this year. Solid snow, but risk of severe fall if you aren't quick on the self-arrest.

Another great alpine climbing adventure in the Olympic Mountains. We tried the Winter route, but after climbing the steep snow got to a moat we couldn't cross so we traversed over to the so called "Summer route" and after negotiating the the easy bergshurnd there we got onto some better snow and rock. 4 hours to summit from car. I rated it R because there have been more deaths here than anywhere in the area. However, most probably could have been prevented with a quick ice axe arrest!
