    Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place. But I'm proud to say I solo'd my first for real mountain this weekend. Conditions were pretty much perfect and it was an amazing day on the mountain. Took the "old chute" route to the summit as the "pearly gates" route looked sketchy due to rock fall. Amazing moment for me and I highly recommend it to anyone in the PNW..

    Yes I did, started at 3:45 am and it was warm enough that I didn't even need a jacket, but cold enough to where everything was still plenty frozen to be safe. It was also not crowded at all for how perfect the day was
