Description:

Climb team will caravan Friday evening to the PCT trailhead at Big Lake. This campsite has no water or toilet services. We'll get an early start up the PCT, branch off onto the climbers trail ascending the ridge to the final 3-pitch rock climb. We will most likely be traveling in snow until completing the final, 5.4-5.7 pitches of climbing on a fixed line, and then rappelling on the descent. Prepare for swarms of mosquitos, and a wait in a cool wind tunnel where we set ropes. The hike out will include snow or scree so waterproof, sturdy boots & gaiters are important. The plan is to summit and return home on Saturday.
