This makes my class 2‘s and 3‘s seem like a walk in the park!

Dam, Jordan! What a trip the three of you had! This was absolutely awesome and a delight to read. The pictures you have posted are killer! The pic showing the planned route across the knife & up the face is amazing. You should enlarge it and frame it. Congratulations on a highly coveted summit!

Congrats on Capitol in winter, Jordan. The pics really showed the conditions well. Did you face any cornices on the knife edge? Looked like an exhilirating climb!

Great report. I soloed it yesterday in one day from the road.

There really werent any cornices that couldnt be avoided, the ridge was more or less caked on the climbers left side and pretty bare on the climbers right side.

I just saw this report, this is one of the coolest things I‘ve ever seen. I‘m so ready for spring/summer but this makes me want another week of snow, good stuff.
