  • August ascent of the third-highest peak in the Olympics - Mount Constance (7,756'). See how to make the most of the abandoned road approach, why you should definitely pack your fishing rod, and most importantly - witness what it is like to cross the infamous FINGER TRAVERSE. So, let's "set up camp, go bag a peak, catch some fish, drink some tequila, and have a kick-ass weekend!" - Ryan Rodman. ‪@HyperliteMountainGear‬ ‪@hellyhansen1877‬ ‪@RadPowerElectricBikes‬

    I think its neat,the top of Inner Constance can be seen from the trail between Bogachiel Peak and Hoh Lake.

      I ended up getting to the lake, but turned back around halfway up the mountain as it was getting too dark. Summiting next time though :)

    I've been up that road a dozen times and up that trail 5 times and using an electric bike is cheating lol, just kidding. Eastern Olympics is my second home.

      Oh it’s cheating that is for sure! But you should know we’ve also done the whole thing on foot before. Ryan and I marched up the Dose to climb Anderson and wisened up to the idea of e-bikes after the fact. No doubt the proper way to experience nature’s glory is at the pace of the backpacker (I’m a triple-crowner, I know this), but we had a mission and part of that mission was showcasing alternative methods to this unique approach. I definitely have not done it 5 times (respect! The Dosewallips is magical and challenging) but I bet if you had the chance to ride as we did this day, you’d also hoot, holler and have a grand ol time with us 😉✌️❤️🏔️ I love that you’re passionate enough to call us out but at the end of the day we are also out there to push ourselves, learn something new and grow… things I know you also seek from the Olympics otherwise why would you care to defend them so wholeheartedly?

      Great video. Climbed Connie in the early 70’s. Before the road was closed. Much earlier in the season so the finger section was a dicey snow patch with crampons. We also got to glissade down which was a nice long slide. I’m not sure my 70 y/o legs could do those first 2 miles anymore. Thank you for the memories.
