Mt. Washington / Amazonia ice came in the last few days. Last time I climbed these was December 2016. Today and tomorrow probably the last days they are in. CYA on the Iron Horse did not come in that fat this cycle.

I teach research methods. Leading with asking the respondents' name and email is a sure way to get refusals. I can think of no reason to ask for a name. I would only ask for email at the end as an option if you want to do followups but you need to explain that. Sorry, I'm not going to fill this out.
Porter, your photo makes it look like we’re in a bowling alley.
Here is the picture taken with my phone.
Only 5 of us old timers showed up. And Tony bailed on us. Stale Toast.

Dirty Harry's was great today! Fat, protectable, great sticks. This climb is just east of Dirty Harry's Balcony. It is south facing about 1000 ft above I90 and is visible briefly from the freeway. After hiking to the balcony, we bushwhacked down the drainage that creates this climb and rapped in. Climb is probably 70-80m long total, mostly WI2-3. It is moderately high volume. Even the forest had fat ice on the way in!
