It depends on how fast you are, and if you get lost like texplorer and dan ("fit party of two under good weather", well with a little fog too) and end up climbing a new route or not. i mean - some "fit and strong parties" can round trip the route in less than a day return from Squamish. other "fit and strong" parties will require a bivy or so. more if you get lost on the descent and make an illegal reentry to America. As for the pocket glacier, a few weeks ago it had almost all slipped off. there MIGHT be some ice fall danger still but there is no way you'd need crampons or an axe.

... but mostly you are mad because THEY DIDNT PRINT YOUR CHESTBEATING ABOUT BACK OF BEYOND BUTTRESS because IT DIDNT MEASURE UP TO THE EDITORIAL STANDARDS

cite your source or its all hearsay. and it better not be some guy named cooper on another bulletin board! i want smokinggun.com level of detail with .jpgs of the permit and so on.

you could call canfor and ask. except they closed the chehalis office so you have to call woss.

longer is stronger in bad ice. get the 13s. hell , spend the extra and get some 17-19cm ones. the short screws are more intended for thin waterfall ice than alpine.

Nice Herr shot Mr E. Do you think Tommy Caldwell's gonna get a rubber unit of variable width to replace his missing fingertip?

Nothing is "imminent" in Nevada cause the whole fucking state is a disaster already!

"i'm a victim too brother!" victim of the alcohol manufacturers. they have created a dependency on booze in me. pay up

i bet your tips sweat like a fat kid in gym class in em, and they are chalkproof so the sweat just builds up, and you get prune finger and they are probably making it harder to clip draws or place gear so suited only for bouldering?????

there are always non crowded routes on the apron. slab alley or sickle are usually the best bets.

gecko gloves are going to own the market. stupid rubber tips will seem so second rate then and you early adopters are gonna look just plain dumb. about like those with betamax recorders or home DATs.

i'm all for this right of conquest stuff. there was a spraying contest here, i won and you all lost. therefore you are my defeated subjects and vassals now. please send me $5 as tribute.

next they will make cams and nuts coated in rubber

And people bitch about bolts. That's a pretty despicable pile of alpineer leavings, fo' sho. But, that's not at Everest. That's at the base of the Toof!!!!
