- Angels Landing
Photo by Earl Redman
Angel's Landing from the Virgin River. The route cuts from right to left under the shadowed face of Angel's Landing then reappears to follow the skyline from left to right. - Angels Landing

The final section of Angel's Landing to the summit. - Angels Landing

Narrow section of Angel's Landing looking down from the summit. - Mount Drum
Photo by Earl Redman
The summit of Mt. Drum from the west ridge. - Cerro de las Tortolas
Photo by Earl Redman
Cerro de las Tortolas from the west take in 1994. We climbed the length of the whale-back ridge from the left then descended from the low point just left of the summit. - Cerro de las Tortolas
Photo by Earl Redman
Cerro de las Tortolas from the Vacas Heladas camp. The normal route follows the slopes below and to the left or right of the summit. Our climb in 1994 followed the skyline ridge left of the summit. - Cerro de las Tortolas
Photo by Earl Redman
Cerro de las Tortolas from the lower east summit. The route kept right of the snow patches. Descent was to the right from the low point between summits. - Mount Fairweather
Photo by Earl Redman
Fairweather's west ridge from 9000 feet in 1984. The route followed the ridge and went to the right of the rock cleaver, above which we put our high camp. The high point on the ridge is the West Shoulder. The main summit of Fairweather is the snow dome behind. - Mount Fairweather

Route up the west ridge of Mt. Fairweather in 1984 from the Sea Otter Glacier. - Mount Fairweather
Photo by Earl Redman
Looking down Fairweather's west ridge from about 10,000 feet. The rock section in the middle distance was passed via the narrow snow slopes on its left side. The last vertical rock bit was climbed using fixed ropes. Our 9000-foot camp was on the snow dome behind the rock. - Mount Hayes
Photo by Earl Redman
Mt. Hayes from the east in 1976 from point 10,232 on the ridge to Moby Dick. The east ridge forms the right skyline of the peak and the south buttress is at the left edge of the photo. - Mount Hayes
Photo by Earl Redman
The north ridge of Mt. Hayes from about 9800 feet in 1982. We camped in the col below and followed the ridge until where it is crossed by shadow at what looks to be about half way up. Our route then cut out onto the face to the right and went more or less directly up through the upside down V-shaped crevasse and onto the ridge. The high point is the North Shoulder which has an elevation of about 12,700 feet. - Bona
Photo by Earl Redman
View west from just below the summit of Mt. Bona with the Twaharpies in 1985. We climbed up over the snow dome in front of the Twaharpies from a saddle between them. - Bona
Photo by Earl Redman
View of University Peak from the west summit of Mt. Bona. In the distance just left of center is Mt. St. Elias and Mt. Logan and King Peak are at the left edge of the photo. - Bona
Photo by Earl Redman
Descending from our 12,000-foot saddle camp down toward the Russell Glacier. View is to the north. - Llaima
Photo by Earl Redman
Volcan Llaima from the north taken from Laguna Captren. My route went up by the zigzag snow patch then gradually moved left up the vague ridge just below the summit. - Llaima
Photo by Earl Redman
Llaima's summit crater in 1990. In 1994, the crater had been filled with lava and ash to the white bat-shaped rock band. - Llaima
Photo by Earl Redman
The final blast of one eruption cycle in 1994. The photo is taken from the west. - Lonquimay
Photo by Earl Redman
Volcan Lonquimay from the southeast in1993. Our route followed the thin ridge just below the right-hand skyline. It leads to the highest point on the crater rim. - Lonquimay
Photo by Earl Redman
Crater rim of Volcan Lonquimay in 1993. Volcanos in the background include Villarica on the right, Sierra Nevada in the center and Lanin on the skyline just left of Sierra Nevada. - Mount Foraker
Photo by Earl Redman
Mt. Foraker in 1977 from near Perkypile. Our followed the sunny ridge that ascends from left to right below the big west face of Foraker toward the pointy Whale's Tail. Our high camp was in the saddle between the triangular peak above the west face and the Whale's Tail. Foraker's summit is behind the triangular peak. - Mount Foraker
Photo by Earl Redman
View up the west ridge from 13,000 feet in 1977. We climbed up to the level section of ridge that appears to be about half way up (but is much less). That is where our second rope team fell, going 500 feet down the face on the right and ending up in the last crevasse just above a several thousand foot rock face. - Mount Foraker
Photo by Earl Redman
The Whales' Tail from Foraker's west ridge in 1977. We avoided the peak on the way up by traversing on the right side. On the descent, we hiked over the peak. - Valhalla
Photo by Earl Redman
Mt. Valhalla from the north taken in March 1983. Our route was up the ridge on the left. - Valhalla
Photo by Earl Redman
Valhalla from the ridge to Mt. Fafnir (10,620 ft) in 1983. Mt. Gilbert Lewis (12,200 ft) is on the left edge of the photo. The original ascent route of Valhalla was up the ridge in the col, over the lower summit. Our Valhalla route followed the ridge coming from the right. - Mount Silvertip
Photo by Earl Redman
The summit spire of Silvertip. This is the last bit of Silvertip's east ridge. - Mount Silvertip

Looking down the east ridge of Silvertip - Mount McGinnis

The 5,000-foot east face of McGinnis in February 1978. - Icefall
Photo by Earl Redman
View from a short way below the summit of Icefall Peak to the north across the Gulkana Glacier to Institute Peak in 1974. - Icefall
Photo by Earl Redman
Looking down the south face of Icefall Peak from shortly below the summit in 1976. Our camp is the dot near the tip of the shadow on the right-hand edge of the photo. A fairly straight-forward steep snow climb in the fall, winter and spring. In the summer, there rock and ice to contend with. - Peak 8100
Photo by Earl Redman
Highly cornice summit ridge of Peak 8100 in 1976. The summit ridge about 100 meters long, all of it cornice over the Gakona Glacier to the north. - Peak 8100
Photo by Earl Redman
The south ridge of Peak 8100 in 1976. The ridge separates the College Glacier, on the right, from an unnamed branch of the Gakona Glacier on the left. Our approach was up the College Glacier. - Hesperus
Photo by Earl Redman
Mt. Hesperus from Big River in 1981. The west face of the mountain, which was the first ascent route, rises about 7,600 feet unbroken. - Hesperus
Photo by Earl Redman
The Revelation Mountains looking down Revelations Glacier from near its head. Mt. Hesperus is the sharp peak in the distance on the left. Most of the peaks in the view are granitic on this side but metamorphic rock on the other. The Apocalypse (9,345 feet) is the high peak on at the bend of the glacier - Golgotha
Photo by Earl Redman
Golgotha Peak from the north in 1981. - Mount Wrangell
Photo by Earl Redman
Mt. Wrangell from from 13,300 feet on Mt. Sanford. All the bumps on Wrangell's summit are volcanic cones. - Mount Drum

The west ridge of Mt. Drum from 10,000 feet in December 1976. - Mount McKinley
Photo by Earl Redman
Denali from the Muldrow Glacier in 1975. The Lower Icefall is in the shadowed area above camp and the Great Icefall is in the shadowed area beyond. Between is the Hill of Cracks. Denali's north summit is the dominant peak with the main south summit a snow dome to the left. - Mount McKinley

The 12,100 saddle on Karstens Ridge in 1975. The rocky area at the base of the clouds is the Coxcomb - Mount McKinley
Photo by Earl Redman
We were forced to camp in this crevasse at Browne Tower by a very strong windstorm and a very hard and icy surface in April 1975. We stayed here for three days. The crevasse less than 3-feet wide at the surface. - Angels Landing
Photo by Earl Redman
From Scout's Overlook to the summit, parts of the route use chains to keep people from falling off. Can be a bit of fun when crowds attempt two-way traffic.
