Cascade Alpine Rock Sampler
Climbers unfamiliar with the Washington Cascades often think of it as a range bristling with snow-capped, glaciated peaks, a place for mountain climbing, not for rock climbing. In fact the range is home to immense rock walls, elegant rock ridges, and complex faces composed of solid granite that offer an abundance of world class alpine rock routes. Some require glacier travel and involve long approaches in glorious wilderness settings. Others are set high in the North Cascades, a mere hour’s walk from the trailhead.
Below is a sampling of what this range has to offer. Whether you are a beginner or advanced climber, the Cascades will take you where you want to go!
These climbs are generally done on a custom basis.
