After getting rained out in Squamish, it was time to play the Washington weather game. September can be hit or miss with rain in Washington state. Luckily we had an awesome map of where to go to dodge the rain (thanks Matt!). We climbed in Vantage, Leavenworth, Mazama, and Washington Pass. When snow hit us in Washington Pass it was time to head south to Oregon.

Booty gear! Steve freed this stuck #3 right after freeing a stuck #2! This makes Outer Space our best booty route yet!

We have so many pictures from the summit of Liberty Bell.

It is officially snowing now, time to descend and head south for warmer weather.

So many mountain goats!
