Climbing is dangerous! Every year many climbers are broken, maimed, and killed. Don't be so foolish as to trust your life to what you see here. I'm not a guide and neither is this web site. If you don't know what you are doing or where you are going, please take a course or hire a guide! |

We talked about whether to rope up, eventually deciding that Jens would start up unroped with his Black Prophet and a walking axe. Ten feet up, frustrated by the performance of the walking axe, Jens asked me to toss up the rope. I flaked it out and tossed and end to him (he was standing on a small ledge). He tied in, clipped and screw, and continued up. He put in one more screw eight feet below the lip, and then pulled over. At his call I took him off belay and packed up my gear.

We followed footprints for a while, but where the cut west toward the middle of the glacier, we stayed east. We were snuggled up against the granite, sometimes using one hand on the rock for support. A crevasse stretching from the east wall to the middle of the glacier finally forced us to the west. Once past it we could see that the bergschrund, which frequently forces climbers to climb mid-fifth rock, was easily passabr. An unfortunate rarity in the Cascades these days.
After a thirty minute rest, we departed for the summit, leaving our technical gear at the col. We crossed the steep snowfield below the false summit to the beautiful gcould see the Ice Cliff glacier in its cirque.
