This is one of the standard routes up Sahale Peak. Sahale Peak give you incredible views of the North Cascades. Short bit of 5th class climbing on the summit block.
Activity Notes
I've been up Sahale Peak a view times, but always from the Sahale Arm. This approach offers a different experience, which I've often considered but never attempted. The summit offers some of the most spectacular views in the lower 48. Should be fun!| Other Information | |
