Thumbs up is right, C-dog! (oh... and that's somebody else's car... our secret canadian admirer's it turns out!)
Bill is.. not stoked at all
Ah, now there's the alpine flagship!
awwwww..
Bill finds blueberries, and the snackin' is ON!
gettin' all crazy artistic with it
Bill and I rock out at the stream (the last source of liquid H2O)
Behold! the granite wall(s)!!
sideways wall.. CRAZY!!!
View across the lower basin.. granite?
Hey look! Its where we climbed last time I was here... damn you low visibility!
Bill with the North and South Nesakwatch Spires and Mt. Rexford (left to right)
THE NORTH SPIRE!!!
One of the Illusion Spires... granite wall!!!
Alpine scenery abounds
Sleese (the flat topped peak just out of the clouds on the right.. duh)
Illusion Spire... is too sexy for my camera
Bill at camp, with the Ensawkwatch behind
Why am I posting so many pictures of this spire... am I secretly in love with it??!?!
Camp below Mt. Rexford.. such gentlemen climbers are we.
The view southwest from the belay high on the north ridge of the North Nesakwatch Spire... Baker on the left, Sleese on the far right.. and other peaks that you either know what they are or you don't.
View Northwest from the belay high on the South Nesakwatch Spire.. don't know the peaks that you can't see anyway.. enjoy!
Bill flashes his north seattle gang sign after topping out on the mad hand crack, thankfully there were no crips on the mountain that day and no one popped a cap in our asses.
Bill is measuring the rappel that would later make him very sad.. stay tuned america.
The rope is stuck and Bill is sad.
Bill prepares to cut the rope... oh so sad is Bill.
Bill cuts his rope so we can bail... so not proud is this event. Let's all have a moment of silence.
Retreat! Down the... scree gully? whatever. (from the notch between the north face of Rexford and the South spire)
The start of the route up the north face of Rexford.. looks pretty meh.
Walls of the West face of the South spire
Looking over to Sleese.. which hides in clouds
