Re: TR?Hey, the weather was unfavorable for safe climbing conditions, so we were never able to get off the glacier - trip report will be posted soon. It was a bit of a bummer, but I still learned a lot, found some great partners, and I'm very familiar in how to plan such a trip again in the future.
BTW, thanks for sending the TR and photos from Liberty Ridge - it sounded like quite an epic. I'm glad you got out all right.

Unclimbed?This face was climbed in 1978 (Timeless Face VI 5.9 WI5, McCartney-Roberts). Simon McCartney and Jack Roberts survived five epic days of objective danger and near death experience to arrive at the summit, before taking a further five to get descend and reach their base camp, each 25lbs lighter from the experience. Their route pretty much goes up the centre of the wall, and remains unrepeated. See Alpinist 20 for info.

Re: MT HunningtonAbout all I could be good for on this one is the logistics and details of getting to the mountain. But it definitely is a peak I'd love to do someday!
Best of luck on your climb, and if you have any questions about getting there or of the area in general, PM or e-mail me and I can probably answer some questions.
Cheers,
Mark
