What advice would you give climbers attempting the Megalodon Ridge? Climb the Northeast Buttress! Seriously, Beckey picked the plumb on this mountain (surprise, surprise). Sol and I were discussing how climbing the Northeast Buttress route is like getting your Bachelors degree in North Cascades alpinism. The climb has a long on-trail approach, major stream crossing, steep brush ’schwacking, glacier issues, exposed, technical rock, and a complex descent. No one part of the package is very difficult, but it's got it all.
What do you do when you’re not climbing? I graduated in June and I'm looking for a job that will facilitate my outdoors addiction.
