Backpacking with my family to some quiet, beautiful lakes in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness. Blueberries galore!

An evening adventure traversing over West Granite and Granite Mountain near Snoqualmie Pass.

Detailed beta of a climb of the West Ridge of Stuart. It was my second time on the long, varied route, and I nailed the route finding this time.

A quick evening loop of P3 and Defiance. This is a fine little ridge line traverse in the Snoqualmie Pass corridor.

An athletic linkup of 9 peaks on the crest of the Teanaway Range. Fun scrambling, easy approach, and great position make this one a classic.

A comprehensive list of high routes, linkups, technical traverses, and ski traverses in Washington State.

An early season send of the NE Couloir in thin, mixed conditions gave us a taste of “the whole hotdog” that comes with alpine mixed climbing.

A beautiful fall colors hike to Chatter Creek Pass in the Chiwaukum.

Seasonally stumped, a confusing day with skis, larches, and a whole lot of fresh snow.

An exploratory high route connecting quiet meadows and alpine lakes between the Thunder Mountain Lakes and Robin Lakes.
