Description:

This is a new climb for the Obsidians, so we'll stay a little flexible. We will climb Pinnacle Peak for sure which is a 3 mile hike, then a quick ridge scramble, then a technical one-pitch rock climb with rope and harness. Because it is close, we'll also climb either Castle or Lane Mt which are also both technical climb.
Signing up does not ensure you will be part of the trip. We may need to have a quick conversation about experience and fitness.

Trip Report

Summer Camp was so much fun, that we thought we would add a little more fun and climb Pinnacle Peak and the Castle, two peaks directly across from Mt. Rainier in the Tatoosh Range. Everyone did great and we got some fleeting views of the mountain. Good times!
