Low on San Jacinto. 1971. Just a bit of spindrift off the summit. With Paul Gleason in about 12 hours car to car with perfect conditions. (This might be near the tram).

Needed the 2 ice tools

San Gorgonio as seen on route.

Chris free soloing the rock route I took up past the choke stone. 50-60 feet (5.4-5.5)

Pretty Epic views

Chris leading up on 4,000+ feet of snow & névé couloir.

View from where we parked.

Paul cruising up the snow chute. The starting elevation can be seen wayyyyy in the background

Chris enjoying a drink after that free solo.

Paul Gleason 1971, mid-route with perfect conditions. Took about 12 hours car to car.

The sun going down at the top.

Thanksgiving 2018. Not a spec of snow even after a storm. Might be the driest I've ever seen for this north face.

Another shot of Chris free soloing the rock route I took up past the choke stone. 50-60 feet (5.4-5.5)

The start of the snow tongue, just above the massive chockstone. 5,300' of snow/ice to the summit

This is a crevasse on the couloir névé. A crevasse in SoCal!

In the couloir - maybe a third of the way up, 1987.

1/14/17. Not bad for La Nina.

Snow Creek, as seen from approx. 1/2 way in on the approach
