On July 4th, Christian and I summited Mt Jefferson. We took a non traditional approach to the route which included a lake party at Shale Lake, and a sunset climb up Goat Peak. We then set out early and climbed the South Ridge. After traversing most of the way around the summit block we ended up sending the North Ridge (5.3) In my opinion, Mt Jefferson is the hardest mountain in Oregon. This was a long but epic climb! We ended up clocking 31 miles and over 8000 ft of vert.
