Trip Report: Mount Woodring, Grand Teton National Park, WY This summer, it snowed on August 31st. While early snows certainly arenโt unheard of here in Jackson, WY, this particular storm really cramped my style since I was planning on going on an alpine adventure September 1st. I discussed the snow with my adventure partners and we still decided to go for it and bag Mount Woodring. So, at 6 […] Trip Report Gabrielle Gasser | September 18, 2020 0 Comments
Trip Report: Buck Mountain, Grand Teton National Park, WY Recently, I went on one of my scariest Teton adventures yet.ย My friend Brenden (my trusty guide up the Middle) and I decided to bag 11,943-foot Buck Mountain. We started a little later, closer to 7 a.m. since the approach was, allegedly, shorter than others. Immediately, we lost our way trying to find the climbers trail that branches off from […] Trip Report Gabrielle Gasser | September 10, 2020 1 Comment
Trip Report: Santa Teresa, Farellones, Chile https://www.instagram.com/p/CEiI1muDuu9/ Report from Tuesday 24th August Short but tight, that was the way our trip to Santa Teresa went with my touring buddy Gabriel Lobos.

Trip Report: Elk Range, CO โ Mt. Daly Summit Push This climb can be dangerous and is not recommended for anyone who does not have sufficient experience. Mt. Daly prominently towers above Snowmass Village, Colorado. At 13,300 feet, it’s hard to miss as it abruptly rises out of the 8,000′ valley. From home, I’ve always had a great view of the peak, and it was super awesome to get this […] Trip Report Clay Malott | August 17, 2020 0 Comments

Trip Report: 36 Hours in Sequoia National Forest, CA Early in the morning on Friday 8/7/2020, I set out from Costa Mesa, CA, and headed up Interstate 405 on a mission to Sequoia National Forest. To be honest, I usually spend my free hiking and backpacking time in the Eastern Sierra but decided to change it up and give the southwestern Sierra a look. From Southern California, I took […] Trip Report Taylor Stephan | August 14, 2020 2 Comments
