The route up the West Buttress. You can bypass the hard climbing by taking the yellow route to keep it 3rd class.
Great views.

The route up the West Buttress. You can bypass the hard climbing by taking the yellow route to keep it 3rd class.
Headed up.
Great views.
May have wandered slightly offroute:)
Fun ridge.
Blocky face.
Looking back on the NE ridge after descending in a whiteout.
The Northeast Ridge Route (also the descent).
The West Buttress. The route starts on the grass at the base.
Michelle on the route. Silverton in the background.
The indistinct ridge just getting light at the top is a more difficult option.
