  • Morning Star Peak, Vega Tower, Marvin's
    AAC Publications Morning Star Peak, Vega Tower, Marvin's Ear Washington, North Cascades During the Fourth of July weekend, a planned climb on Vesper Peak (6,214’) turned into an alpine picnic due to my wife Shelia experiencing first-trimester morning sickness. But another piece of rock had caught my attention during our hike over Headlee Pass: Vega Tower (5,480’), a sub-summit on the north ridge of Morning Star Peak (6,020’). [Editor’s note: Vega Tower is looker’s right of Vegan Tower, another sub-summit along the ridge that’s home to the popular route Mile High Club (see AAJ 2016)] Vega had one technical route listed in the Beckey guide on its western aspect, called Starshot Ridge (5.8), said to have been established by Jerome Eberharter and Reese Martin in 1981. Martin passed away in 2004, but I was able to contact Eberharter, who said he was actually down in Yosemite during that time and wasn’t Martin’s partner for Starshot. As best I could tell, Starshot stayed to the right on blockier terrain, but the aesthetic west ridge proper appeared to be unclimbed. A couple of weeks later, I returned with Imran Rahman. In a gully right of our intended line we thrutched our way through cedars and kicked our approach shoes into matted heather needles to a ridgeline notch, where an exposed low-fifth-class pitch brought us to the top. We rapped the crest, establishing the anchors and route line from the top down while friends hollered in the mist on the neighboring Mile High Club.

    Northwest Weather & Avalanche Center 2010-2011 Annual Report Report prepared by Mark Moore, Kenny Kramer and Garth Ferber A partnership between the USDA Forest Service, Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission, National Park Service, National Weather Service, Washington State Department of Transportation, Northwest Winter Sports Foundation, Pacific Northwest Ski Area Association, Ski Washington, Washington State Snowpark and Snowmobile Programs, USDA Forest Service Fee Demo programs, Title II RAC programs, Ski Schools, Friends of the Avalanche Center and others. Forest Service United States Department of Pacific Agriculture Northwest Region Cover Photo credits: After a month of low snow levels that hovered mostly between 2 and 4000 feet and 100-120 inches of snowfall, the April Fool‘s rain event and associated warming that began on March 30th and extended into April 1st produced freezing levels reaching 6-8000 feet in the central WA Cascades and 2-day rainfall totals ranging up to 5 to 7 inches near Stevens and Snoqualmie Passes. A very significant avalanche cycle resulted in the Pacific Northwest, including 6-10 foot slabs releasing from control within the Crystal Mt ski area, 10-20 ft. natural slabs on the higher elevation east slopes of Mt Hood, and these large wet slabs that originated in the Old Faithful slide paths and blocked the US-2 highway corridor at Stevens Pass. The slides included both controlled and natural releases which damaged a blower and closed the highway for much of the day. In response to the anticipated warming and increasingly heavy precipitation, the NWAC had issued avalanche watches and warnings that began on the 28th of March and culminated on the 30th and 31st when extreme danger was forecast above about 4000 feet.

  • 2013 Avalanche Hazard Profile
    Final Hazard Profile – Avalanche Avalanche Frequency 50+ yrs 10-50 yrs 1-10 yrs Annually People <1,000 1,000-10,000 10,000-50,000 50,000+ Economy 1% GDP 1-2% GDP 2-3% GDP 3%+ GDP Environment <10% 10-15% 15%-20% 20%+ Avalanche Property <$100M $100M-$500M $500M-$1B $1B+ Risk Level Hazard scale < Low to High > Frequency – Avalanches occur annually in Washington. People – National and international statistics show that there is the potential for significant loss of life from an avalanche. Economy – An incident is unlikely to cause the loss of 1% of the State GDP. Environment – An incident is unlikely to cause the loss of 10% of a single species or habitat. Property – An incident is unlikely to cause $100 million in damage. Summary o The hazard – An avalanche occurs when a layer of snow loses its grip on a slope and slides downhill. Avalanches typically occur from November until early summer in all mountain areas, but year-round in high alpine areas. They primarily pose danger to people in areas where there is no avalanche control, and to continued movement of people and freight over the state’s mountain highway passes. o Previous occurrences – Avalanches occur frequently each year and kill one to two people annually in the Northwest (about 25-35 deaths annually in the U.S.). Avalanches have killed more people in Washington than any other hazard during the past century. In 90 percent of avalanche fatalities, the weight of the victim or someone in the victim’s party triggers the slide.
