It’s been fun to finally get around to checking out the spring opening of Washington Pass. I’ve joked that so much of the area seems same-y, but having snow on the mountains definitely adds some much needed character that I’ve come to expect from the Cascade Range.

Wallaby seems to be one of those unnotable sacrificial peaks with great views. Fun day flipping between lagging and scurrying to chase corn on east, south, and west aspects.

Scouted this line from Silver Star before I later identified it as the north couloir of Big Kangaroo. I wanted a shorter outing with potentially a big one the next day, so opted for this.

Flew from Virginia to SLC, then drove straight to WA Pass to catch the first opening week for cars.

Finally knocking this one out in between an iffy forecast window!
