South Ingalls

Basin below Ingalls

We heard folks were canceling climbs because of avalanche danger last weekend. Taking due note, Steve, Mark S, Mike L, Doug and I decided on a scramble of South Ingalls. I’d been on top of Fortune (just south of S. Ingalls) and N. Ingalls (just north of Ingalls), so this was a great opportunity to knock off the last peak on the ridge.

We found the basin below Ingalls full of snow, making for a speedy step-kicking ascent to the top. We settled in with our snacks to watch Clusterous and Fuckteemious screw up the rock climb on the south face of Ingalls. We weren’t sure why the bolts looked so unattractive to this group. I don’t think they could have made it any harder on themselves or more entertaining for us to watch.
