There are maybe 20 waterfalls in that cirque that have allegedly never been climbed but formation remains rare. The big gully had no ice whatsoever. It looks real good though, if it were ever to form. The WI2+ falls on the approach up Evans Creek has ben climbed (see Serl/Kay guide) and it is possible that a few routes in that bowl may have been done but not reported since then.

Snow mobiles at Cerise ?

SUV's - That would be "Are you a Yuppy?"

Thats pretty correct except I heard they might have been climbed sort of 4th hand. i guess when we/you top out we/you will see if there is a cairn or not! If you get therre first you are required to name individuial spires with "post" names cause they are near Post Creek - eg. Canada post, Last Post, National Post, Express Post, Post modern etc. You aren't Thomas Kutter by any chance are ya? Guys from surrey (whew) relief.. I was worried there for a minute

Shit man I got 5 yesses. Guess which ones! And does "Are you a non Smoker" refer to tobacco or sweet leaf? Cause I like to save my lungs for the good stuff just like I dont give Coors or Bud etc to my kidneys unless its free. [ 01-14-2002: Message edited by: Dru ]

Adamson you just gave away the fact you haven't sold off Panther yet

Hiked up into the Blanshard peak-Edge cirque (Evans Creek) . All waterfalls were flowing, only a few small icicles. So we climbed an endlessly long snow gully up to the ridge crest north of Blanshard then headed for Edge. Maybe 600m of mostly 40 degree snow with steps to 55 or so. Great conditions - perfect thick neve and crust made great "shnice" for pick placements. The warm then freeze cycle sure did its job. Turned back about 100m from summit of Edge when confronted with a steep notch and had left gear back at the col to speed things up. also we were starting to get overdue cause they lock the gate at 5:30 and it was 2:00. We eventually made it out at 5:25 with the ranger standing by the gate looking at his watch. So ice may not be in but subalpine snow conditions are highly pwerfect for climbing. Looks like about 4 feet of low elevation snow has melted down in the past two weeks.

who is "we"? how come you came all the way from port alice to scope something that is on my list of "things to investigate and maybe climb"? they look that good but there is better stuff in the tsitika which should be closer to home for you anyways?

will 1) its Disco Gun Machine not Disco machine gun. 2) routes named after the guys who climbed them are cause they were too dumb to think up a good name. those names are lame* the only thing worse is routes named after a geographic feature like "North Ridge" or "West Face" *except for the Cheesmond/Dick. aka Dickcheese, mon!

....maybe.... who's asking? I know the Chilliwack Outdoors Club hiked up there last year or so for a look see but most of them (this is hearsay) cant tie their own shoelaces let alone a figure-8 knot. Its good rock anyways. maybe a bit bushy in spots and talus approach of death. I know Greg Foweraker did some routes on the big cliff right above the outlet of Lindeman Lake. And I have never seen the wet streaks on that cliff freeze up but i have never been there when it was really cold either .

"The Negro Lesbian" old A4 next to "The Black Dyke" on the Squamish Chief. Name is appropriate to location. thanks to Darryl Hatton for making me laugh.

its good if the dog that digs you out has a keg of brandy around its neck like those Swiss St. Bernards do.

Look out for the 400 lb ice blocks I have seen them come off of Honeyman & Carls Berg before.

Lilloet this weekend is gonna be all about 40 people on 4 routes (Marble, Rambles, Oregon Jack & maybe NightNGale I would guess...or if you could get into Phair it might be OK) all weekend. saturday forecast is for rain and high of + 5. sunday should be colder high 2 low -4 and partly sunny. i am gonna give the lillooet ice a chance to reform and go check out some alpine cirques up the hope princeton for ice. check the forecast for yourself weatheroffice.ec.gc.ca

once i made the 9 hour drive to smith rocks carrying 3 left shoes and no right shoes - an Ace a Vector and a Moccasym. Doh!

E dog I don't roll but the Peace Pipe is packed with sweet leaf.

So you thought being a climber and talking about it a lot meant you were a bit of an anorak? Think again! A recent survey says boasting about taking part in extreme sports is likely to prove a hit with the opposite sex. The poll found those who go on adventure holidays or who like a spot of rock climbing are seen as exciting, cultured and interesting! Answers showed that 17% of those questioned thought people who were adventurous were more attractive; 47% believed they were more interesting; 25% more cultured; and 49% more exciting. According to the poll, 12% of men and women own up to boasting about adventurous conquests, while 3% have told a "tall story". The survey was on behalf of The Daily Telegraph Adventure Travel and Sports Show 2002, which takes place at London's Olympia from January 11 to 13.

Dont try to justify your name to me Anuscling I already know how to pronounce it, like the French do. Cawlis that was tres 'einous zut alors. Ps a Fatty in BC is a big rollup. Sort of like a rolling-paper blunt. You might confuse trask by referring to your fatty and he might come up and ask you if he could smoke it.

Ross Rebagliati won Olympic gold snowboarding in 1998. Then was disqualified after testing +ve for herbage. Then won his medal back after claiming he had been at a party where tokes were sparking but had not smoked himself merely been near persons who were toking. Ross became a poster boy for the BC marijuana growers and consumers. sort of like Sharma is now for climbers except he (sharma) didnt get his bouldering WC victory back!!!

capt gets the beer lead title. i will be dope gun.
