A gallery recording the trip to Panorama Ridge.
Recorded on Strava, the entire trip covered 20.5 miles with a 5,500 ft elevation gain and took 7h 30min of moving time. We departed from the Rubble Creek Trailhead, took a detour to the Garibaldi Lake Campground, summited the iconic Panorama Ridge, and returned via the Taylor Meadows Trail.
读完郁达夫《春风沉醉的晚上》，回想最近也在“夏风”中沉醉了一晚。说来奇怪，有“春风”，“秋风”，“东风”，却偏偏独没有这“夏风”的说法，想来也许是因为在高温下，空气的流动难以找寻到存在感了吧。原文的故事平淡温情，很是契合这春天的晚上，倒是这沉醉一词让我思考。内心平稳安定，健康逐渐恢复，思绪漫无涯涘，胃口由面包半磅变为一磅，这样数日的夜游的确令人沉醉。不是神志不清不省人事的沉醉，而是神清气爽的沉醉。
Summiting Mount Rainier and snowboarding down is undeniably a significant accomplishment in my life. I’ve been nurturing this dream since my initiation into backcountry snowboarding. Last year, I managed a ‘partial’ successful ascent of Rainier, taking the route up via the Ingraham Glacier. I use the term ‘partial’ because, though we did ascend to the volcano’s rim, extreme wind conditions and near-zero visibility prevented us from reaching the true summit. We were also deprived of the stunning views that the apex of this majestic mountain affords. However, this time, I achieved all my goals: standing on the true summit and descending via the Emmons Glacier on my splitboard.
July, 09-10, 2022 -> dc route -> two people -> successful! -> summit was so windy -> got to the volcano rim June, 26-27, 2021 -> emmons -> failed -> camp shurman -> wind -> many people in one tent -> tent was blowing away -> pushed a little and back May, 29-30, 2021 - one day push -> failed -> mandy got dizzy -> DC route -> so beautiful -> avalanch risk
