The sunlit line left of the arete dropping off the summit has already been skiied by the Whistler posse. To get the beer you have to ski the shadowed face just right of the central arete.

The highways suck through the Fraser Valley right now. If you are hoping to go ice climbing, you'll have better luck getting to your ice climbs with a Taun Taun than with an SUV.

Google "gecko tape". C'mon this is 2003 news. What island were you stranded on jdjunior?

You don't need hip waders to get to the Superheroes they are only 100m from the highway. Two 5+s and two 6's.

"I'm only paying your cell phone bill for you because you called in that rescue on me"

no it hasn't

"The love that dare not speak its name still has a price tag"

but has he done it IN WINTER

if you ski the beautiful nightmare i will buy you a beer.

it's not "soloing" if you have a bouldering mat and are less than 10 feet off the ground!

you could see that the pillar was in on monday but i don't know about the approach. shouldn't you be gunning for the superheroes cirque instead?

Hozomeen N has already had a winter ascent, and in the winter it is easier to approach via Manning Park anyways.

Re: the biner brake, the more biners, the more friction. it can be hard to control a one-biner biner brake setup like you describe. good way to make an uncontrolled descent. agreed with pax cutting up a mammut sling is one of the dumbest things you could possibly do. not to mention cutting spectra without the special tool is rather difficult!

It's not the only thing I got that's bigger than yours

I gotz da freshizzlez

Abbotsford and Chilliwack are getting a lot more than the forecast 5-6cm. I'm going to be able to ski to the grocery store tonight!

The Kwoiek Cr deactivation was an inhouse job

If I recall correctly it is somewhere near the park boundary and bridge over the Skagit, just past Silvertipped Campground. But right now you'd need to snowmobile 30km to get to the gate.

How long did it take you guys to get in Todd?
