North Cascades

Cortney and I broke off from the monkey posse this weekend and went to the North Cascades for some hiking and exploring. It was gorgeous but cold, and we spent a lot of time enoying the scenery and avoiding climbing. We made it to Newhalem Friday for some hiking and a bit of climbing, then headed up to Washington Pass. We spent most of Saturday hiking around and trying to check out boulders, with some limited success. I will definitely return next spring/summer when it's a bit warmer... Here are some pics from hiking around, including some rare shots of undeveloped blocks. Hopefully this will provide more incentive for everyone to get out there and find new boulders - Fun stuff!
