Comments: Climbed a very-dry Ellingwood Arete on 6/2/12.
There was just a touch of ice in the upper headwall crack, but it was easily avoided.
The descent is relatively dry as well, with just a few snow fields at the bottom that hardly even required an axe - you'd easily survive without one.

Comments: The traditional approach from the east has been altered by the presence of a gravel operation that is currently underway. The parking lot that you used to park in no longer exists. You now have to proceed another 100 yrds or so and park at the side of the road. You then basically thrash your way thru the woods, circumnavigating the gravel operation to intersect the old road that you used to walk up from the now-consumed parking lot. It's a 10-15 minute walk on a pleasant wooded trail to the ... more >>

Comments: This is an awesome route- the steep, bolted crux comes about half-way thru the 2nd pitch- a long throw off a sloper to a good pocket. A psychological crux comes at the top near the top of the cliff- a very thin corner that takes brass and maybe some off-set micro cams, then fun bolted face climbing to the top.

Comments: Don't expect to get any reasonable gear on this pitch. It's essentially a solo. Makes a great continuation from the top of Push-Me-Pull-You, but it has a high pucker factor.

Comments: Treasure in good shape 12/21 - good screws found all the way up to the easier climbing at the top where it became a little thin for gear, but still great climbing.
