Peak Name Climb Date Notes
Mt. Shasta2019-06-13Climbed Casaval Ridge in 14hrs. Car to summit back to car. The snow was a bit dangerous along the ridge and had to post through some bad avalanche areas.
Mt. Williamson2017-09-08This was the completion of my goal to climb all the14er peaks in California. I had a blast climbing every one of them! I climbed this final one with my son Zack via the west face route.
Mt. Tyndall2017-07-13I had the pleasure to climb this with my two boys, Nick and Zack. We free soloed the Tyndall Effect 5.6 route. It was good, but a lot of large hollow flakes and loose rock to be very careful around.
Mt. Langley2017-05-28Climbed in a day via Tuttle creek. 16 hour climb.
Mt. Sill2015-08-28We did the 5 peak Thunderbolt to Sill traverse in a very long day. It was super fun, aside from the massive amount of smoke from the Yosemite fire. Climbed the 5.8+ boulder problem to the actual summit of thunderbolt. From there we climbed the ridgeline of starlight class 4-5. Climbed the Milk Bottle of Starlight peak, which is a 5.6 friction boulder. From there, we downclimbed the class 4 and rapped across the chasm to climbed up class 4-5 to North Palisade Peak. We headed down an exposed 4th class ridgeline to a jumble of huge red boulders, then followed the exposed southeast ridge until we got to the chute with a small airy ledge that we could traverse around an arete. Tis led us to a class 4-5 crack system to downclimb to the U notch. From their we found our way to Polemonium Peak. The final of the 5 summits in a day was Mt Sill that was a super easy class 2-3 traverse.

Mt. Russell2015-08-13I summited Mt Russell after descending Mt Whitney North Face and then climbing back up the North Face to meet up with my daughter.
Mt. Whitney2015-08-13It was so difficult to get a permit. I decided to do all the Whitney zone peaks at the end of my 75 mile High Sierra backpacking trip with my daughter. I climbed a little class 5 up Mt Muir, then hiked over to Mt Whitney, descended the north face of Whitney and climbed up Mt Russell. I descended Russell and climbed up the North Face of Whitney to meet back up with my daughter who was waiting for me.
White Mountain Peak2014-08-17Climbed White mountain the next day after summiting Split mountain.
Split Mountain2014-08-16Summited Split in a day - car to summit, back to car.
Middle Palisade2014-07-04Climbed a class 4 col. for the 4th of July. Car to Summit and back to car in a day. Placed the American flag on the summit. Fantastic climb!
Mt. Shasta2014-06-21My first of the California 14ers. Super fun. We climbed Avalanche Gulch.
