Mazamas — For the Love of Mountains
Activity Notes
This route is roughly four pitches of 5.5/5.6 climbing including some scramble section. Grade II.
This is a provisional climb for me (Tracie). It's intended to be a small group with two teams of two on the rock pitches moving independently, but close enough to assist each other if needed. Teams can swap leads depending on comfort levels and conditions. This can be a popular route and keeping ourselves fast and light will be important to stay safe and manage our day efficiently.
Although we'll be climbing car-to-car, due to the driving distance from Portland and potential for the route to be busy we'll camp at the trailhead Friday evening, and drive home Saturday evening (hopefully having time to stop for pizza in Alpental).
Preference for graduates of Intermediate Climbing School and Advanced Rock classes. Must have prior experience cleaning trad gear and lead belaying, at minimum.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or the assistant (Rebecca Madore!). Will make team selection by July 15, at the latest.
