Mt. Anderson, Lost Mountain and Mt. Bauerman

Some pix from the Mt. Anderson, Lost Mountain and Mt. Bauerman Traverse (lead by K. McDermott with GMS - July 18th, 2009)

Mt. Oberlin (June 27th, 2009)

A few photos from June 27th. James Y., Chris C., Kristien and myself drove down to Logan's Pass to join the Glacier Mountaineering Society (led by J. Foster) for a group scramble to the top of Mt. Oberlin.





There is a hiking route to the summit but Foster led us on a route with a bit of scrambling (including one pitch of class IV) to allow those unaccustomed with steep terrain to get accustomed to this type of climbing.



Jim actually belayed a couple of folks on the most difficult part and a few people ventured further along the ridge to explore some pinnacles just beyond the summit.



Chris C., Kristien and myself stayed overnight at the Swiftcurrent motel and hiked again with GMS on Sunday.

Mt. Kupuntkamint (June 28th, 2009)

Here are a few pix from hiking in Glacier on June 28th, '09.





















Kristien, Chris C. and I drove down to Cutbank ranger station in Glacier Park (Montana) to scramble up Mt. Kupuntkamint with GMS. Led by Dell M., we summitted Kupuntkamint just after lunch and almost got blown off our feet! We followed the ridge towards White Calf Mountain but decided to bail because of the wind and the longer than foreseen distance.









Last photo shows the summit of White Calf mountain off in the distance.
