Eldorado Peak is located in North Cascades National Park off Cascade River Road near Marblemount, Washington. This was my first attempt to climb the peak. We abandoned the climb after it had snowed heavily overnight and the avalanche danger just too high. It would take me another failed attempt until I finally reached the summit of Eldorado Peak.

This was an Basic Climb by the Seattle Mountaineers with a party of twelve.
