Just having returned from Huntingon ravine, thought I would provide a quick trip report. THERE IS NO SNOW ANYWHERE AT ALL YET! We tried to climb the pinnacle on Saturday, actually got up the first three pitches, but the weather turned bad quick! We had to rap off the route (climber's left) and simu climb our way out...kind of dicey, but made for an interesting day. The rock quality on the route is actually quite good, and natural protection is easily had. The next day we went to climb Cathedral ledge, felt a little like an outdoor climbing gym...lot's of people, lot's of garbage on trail, but the climbing was terrific! About halfway up Thin Air we looked to our right and out of the blue we saw a head pop out of the ridge on Standard route (Toe crack variation). We call him Yellow Head and as soon as I can figure out how to post JPEGS on this sight you will see why. I thought I would share with you all some neat photos of our trip. Can anyone tell me how to do this? I know Yellow Head is looking forward to showing them to his mother!
