THE CLEAVER - SOUTHEAST BUTTRESS ~ (11) imagesAug 21-25, 1979
The one drainage we hadn't yet explored yielded a gem. The SE Buttress of the Cleaver is the obvious moderate route on the face. The first day there I did a nice loop around Tulainyo Lake which serendipitously showed me the descent from Cleaver col which we would use the next day after our climb. The fourth day we moved over to Upper Boy Scout Lake and on the 5th day we hiked out. Great start to the '79 season.
