The Need to Tackle Racism in Outdoor Spaces

New research from Opening Up The Outdoors has found that for many people of colour, racism and discrimination continues to be a daily reality, even in outdoor spaces that should provide freedom, health, and belonging.

Hinkhouse Peak

Although a "walk up" as described elsewhere here, the final section involves a short rappel or down climb into a notch 1 rope length below the true summit. Some class 4 scrambling from the notch to the summit. Getting back out of the notch on the way back involves low class 5 climbing. Early season there may be a cornice problem in the notch.

Glacier Peak

Allow 9-10 hours to reach White Pass from the trailhead if you're carrying a heavy pack. There are several water sources along the PCT. There is a good water source on the PCT about 0.2 miles before arriving at the pass. You can reach high camp from White Pass but the last mile and a half will be slow due boulder scrambling and water crossings and steep, rough ground after crossing.

Reaching high camp will save you 2-3 hours on summit day. Allow 9-12 hours from low camp to the summit. Follow the trail and boot pack from high camp up to the Disappointment Peak ridge line. From here, you'll have to either climb the rock on the ridge or make faster time by roping up with crampons and climbing the Suiattle Glacier.

Traverse to the right in front of Disappointment Peak and watch for rockfall. Veer left to Cool Glacier being very cautious of the crevasses and possible hard ice as we experienced. After gaining the Cool Glacier snowfield, follow the boot pack to the moraine ridge line above. Leave ropes and crampons and all unnecessary gear here and ascend the snow free ridge.

Follow the switchbacks up the face. Cross a small gully where the rock gets larger and ascend the right side of the smaller snow patch to the right of the larger one. About halfway up this patch, cross the narrow section of snow to gain the left side of the snow patch. Some steep rock scrambling from here to the summit.

A notch in the rock opens to snow. Follow the boot pack to the left a short distance to the summit and register. Climbed August 23, 2022

Three Fingers

TRAILHEAD: Three Fingers/Goat Flats/Saddle Lake Trail No. 641. To get to the trail, drive 17 miles up the Tupso Pass Rd. No 41, which branches left off the Mountain Loop HWY 6.5 miles east of Granite Falls (the turnoff is unmarked until a small HWY 41 sign about 100ft down the road, so make sure to pay attention!)

ROUND-TRIP DISTANCE: 16 miles if you are lucky enough to start at the trailhead

TIME: On this winter trip, getting up to the lookout took about 7-8 hours at a mellow pace and a few short breaks. On my summer 2008 hike to the lookout, it took us a little under 5 hours to get to the lookout. The descent times were about equivalent to the ascent times.

TRAILHEAD ELEVATION: 3,020 feet

SUMMIT ELEVATION: 6,854 feet (used to be 6,870 ft before 15 feet were blasted in 1931 to make room for the fire lookout cabin).

NOTE: Goat Flats and the lookout are quite popular, especially in the fall when the route becomes more straightforward. If you want to spend a night alone in the lookout, your best bet is to go midweek (or in the winter!).

Mount Stuart

Ulrich's Couloir

This is a great route. It's an alternative to the West Ridge or Cascadian Couloir. There are no loose dirt gullies on this route. It is mainly class II/III with one short class V pitch at the 3/4 pinch point.

From Longs Pass, descend to Ingall's Creek. At the trail junction, go left (W) for about 1/3 mile. Look for a prominent creek on the right, sometimes marked with a cairn. Proceed up creek (a bit brushy to begin) and make your way left out of the creek as soon as practical. Continue directly up keeping the creek on your right for about 1000' through mixed terrain. When it gets steep, move left until you find a prominent gully to ascend. Proceed up, then right to enter Ulrich's. Move up and right through Ulrich's on solid blocky terrain until you reach an awkward pinch point in the gully. Climb directly up through this obstacle. Easy class V for 20'. Glad to be wearing approach shoes here. In fact for the entire route. Continue directly to the main summit from here, veering right when forced to choose. Descend via Cascadian.

My time from Longs Pass to summit is about 5 hrs. I found water on the route, even in September. On my three ascents I've never seen another person (or cairn).

Mount Baker

Climbed middle of July 2019 and reached summit with solid routing however very slushy conditions through most of Roman Wall. Be mindful there's a bergschrund near the latter part of the Roman Wall that could be a problem for this and future climbing season on the south side. Evidently the north side is still closed due to a crevasse on the Coleman Route.
