Mt Olympus via Blue Glacier

June 19 to June 22, 2025

Coordinator: Noel Tavan

4 day trip. Permit pending. I will add more details soon.

A long 17+ mile approach, a glacier with crevasses and bergschrunds, and a Class 4 rock climb with a Class 5 step on loose rocky ramps to the summit of its West Peak. Mount Olympus, in the center of Olympic National Park, is one of the "Five Majors" and a big accomplishment.

If you want to join, please send me your climbing resume to Noel.Tavan@gmail.com. Priority will go to SAC members in good standing, organizers, assistant and climb school graduates with previous experience.
