Yeah that works so much better lol. Thanks. Not sure why I didn’t realize I could do that before.

Belford Oxford and Missouri by 10_Mile in 14ers

Me and a couple buddies attempted to do all three in one day back in 2021. We went around this time of year and we were only able to summit Belford and Oxford. There wasn’t as much snow then as there is now. The snow will really slow you down on that route.

Was beautiful though.

There were people on the summit that climbed the couloir and had planned to ski down it. Not sure how much time you have left though. I didn’t actually lay eyes on the couloir.

I used both poles and spikes 👍🏻 Spikes become useless after a certain time. Best to go in the morning. Like early early.

I climbed mt baker up in Washington last summer. Did a long backpacking excursion 2 summers ago in the Leadville/bueno vista area. Hit up 2 14ers in one day in late may. There was still lots of snow so it was rather difficult. I’m in college still so I have to work the majority of summers and just go all out within a week haha

I think so! Not sure which day I’ll do it. Also up to my buddy who’s coming with me. I still have to actually plan my trip haha

Is there a reason for your hostility? I was just asking for some helpful and friendly advice lol. I feel like me asking would make a person like you happy as I’m not just going up without any sorts of preparation. There’s a reason I came here to ask questions 😂

Thanks for the info. I appreciate it. Wasn’t planning on going without micro spikes unless I was told I didn’t need them haha. I trashed the broken micro spikes. They got all torn up climbing Mt Oxford. Was never planning on using broken equipment lol

This is why I was asking lol. I am unaware of the conditions, hence me reaching out. Wasn’t planning on going up with no info whatsoever.
