I haven't climbed Mailbox Peak, nor have I done Glacier Peak in a day or the Bulger List but I did climb some ice in Banks today. Most routes are not in but we found good ice on the Corner Route at MP 9. Left MBI 1 was also in. The cable and H2O2 are trying but not really close. We climbed U1 and U2 at MP 14. Peewee #1, 4, and 5 all looked in. Zenith wasn't even close although it is trying. Most other lines were either non-existent although a few of the brush routes were trying.

Trip: Columbia River Gorge - Various Ice Routes Trip Date: 01/19/2024 Trip Report: Snuck in some final pitches on Friday 1/19 and Saturday 1/20 with Damon and Angie before the rain came. See pics below... Starvation Creek area Archer Mountain area Ainsworth area? Rapping off trees to avoid tedious down climbing on hard rain ice. Climb near Archer Driving home was super fun... NOT! Gear Notes: screws... stubbies not needed! Approach Notes: AWD w/ chains

Amazing adventure and astounding persistence! Glad the drytool crag could be of some assistance!!

"I'm surprised this fart guard hasn't become a standard feature in all tents." 🤣 I am surprised we never called it that! I am the guy on the right, one of the designers to my left. I left NEMO over 10 years ago. They still make some interesting (different) stuff, but the air supported tent thing never took off.

Wow! Super cool! You ability to suffer is epic! Its pretty awesome that you stuck with it even with knowing what would have to be endured. Thanks for posting!
