Once I ran into a couple of Europeans on a high route near Glacier Peak. They had been all over Europe and the Alps, covered a lot of ground, but WA really threw them for a loop. It scared them a little, I think.<br /><br />If I can ever get 3 or 4 days away, then I'll go on a real adventure, like up Luna Peak, in the heart of the Pickett Range. Now that is a place to disappear.<br /><br />There's a great old Fred Beckey story where he and his brother were kicking serious ass in the Picketts back in the early 1940s, putting up first-ascents left and right on some wild and remote peaks. <br /><br />There they are resting in this lonely glacial cirque, miles from any trail, and another party (Anderson, I think) comes out of the bush and runs right into them. It would be like Scott running into some Boy Scouts in Antarctica and asking to borrow a spare blanket.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=pickett+range&safe=off&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=yyaoUfKJB-L7iwKd9IHgCA&ved=0CAoQ_AUoAQ&biw=1285&bih=911" rel="nofollow">Pickett Range in the North Cascades</a>christiangustafsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07216348353801614419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547276048038789798.post-84516802640765719392013-05-30T18:14:39.528-07:002013-05-30T18:14:39.528-07:00Thats one hell of an outlook.
