Every single route on the east face of Long's Peak. A full caption is in comments.

Mike Munger leads the cave pitch of the glacier traverse.

Had to put the pack down for the crux...Last pitch of the route.

I'm posting up this photo in memory of one of my all time favorite climbing partners, "Big Bob" LaGrange (R.I.P.). He and I did a June ascent of Stettner's in 1961.

Photo by Nils Albert. LP on var of last pitch of Hornsby Direct. Drier. Nice 5.8. No fixed gear.

Pitch 5, 5.8 variation, nice. Belay is on top of a boulder on Broadway. Nils Albert climbing.

Approaching the route via Mills' Glacier in August 2022. We chose to come from the left, to minimize our time on steep snow and ice. It was a 3rd Class traverse to the base of the route after an initial DFU 5.0 rock step getting off the glacier.
