Mt. Starr King, California, USA (9,092 ft / 2771 m): via SE Saddle

October 8, 2005

Mt. Starr King (9,092')

Brief report:

We climbed as two parties of 2; I climbed with Juan Carlos Marvizon and ming21 climbed with Dave Van Selow. I found the lower section of the class 3+ friction gully to have some spicy moves since I was wearing regular tennis shoes with non-sticky rubber soles. The SE Saddle climb itself was straightforward; we descended the same class 3+ friction gully; I wore my climbing shoes for this descent. All in all, great company on a great setting.
