Jul 1, 2023
7/1-4, two of us did a long loop to climb these peaks:
7/1: Osceola, camping at Doris Lake (trail all the way to the lake)
7/2: Carru + Lago (my climbing buddy also climbed Ptarmigan), camped at the upper Dot Lake. Almost entirely off trail.
7/3: Ptarmigan + Dot. Then overland to Shellrock Pass, and down for camp.
my climbing buddy climbed Lost Peak (it's very far).
7/4: 15 miles hiking out.
Our TH is Slate Pass/ Buckskin Ridge.
Condition: still green. Enough water source. A snow field down Lago that we avoided. LOTS of rocks to scramble over. From Dot Lake to Shellrock Pass is rocks + down trees, slow going.
