More training
Well, we’ve been up to a few things lately. Steve House and Jeanne dropped by on the way to Kathmandu, where Steve is heading to the west face of Makalu…
Beamer and I have climbed Tahquitz in semi-winter conditions on Sahara Terror — it was freezing rock, which was hard to climb. We turned around half-way up.
Last weekend we hit San Gorgonio (11.5k ft)… We were having a lazy day, and turned around after 12 miles. We’d added an hour to the trip by getting lost at around 9k where the snow obscured the trail. After finding it again, we made it to high camp, and decided it would be too long of a day for our comfort. We’ll finish it next weekend perhaps.
Upcoming trips are: Mt. Rainer (Eamons route) — U-Notch couloir on the Polemonium glacier.
