Fear comes from a lack of faith, what are you afear of, dying,fulure. Seek grasshopper and you shall find.

Allright some Neil Young

So I heard from partners in the fire department, that it was a helmet test. Someone put a helmet on a dummy and drop him off, someone walking by on top saw it and called 911, they split before anyone showed up.

Lucky told me it was a dummy under P.V. sounds like some one may have pushed it over. I will hear more at work today.

You have all lost it. The best thing to do is (what i do) is put a piece in above anchor then the fall will be on it. I count this as part of my anchor.

I have to go out there to see if its in, I will climb frist then I'll let you know how it is.

someone who lives here can post when routes are in, so far I have done that, there just is nothing to report. Daytime temps. are above frzeeing. I will post when things change.

Call me 509 7540937

Thanks, I needed help too.

Icegirl I would be happy to scratch your belly.

You must not have read my post Right, I said ice WAS STARTING TO FORM, the only route in is the punchbowl and it was not great, just the left side. You are all wellcome to come out but I would wait til some stuff forms. I will keep you posted if you like. If you do come out bring your rock gear and try those routes there. About a mile past the punchbowl on the left. There's a pullout and its a short walk.

Thanks Pinhead,(joking)Most of the routes I saw looked kool and I can't wait to try them, maybe this weekend, if all the ice is gone. Im glad to hear that people would be willing to change routes to make them more (careful) stylist. Like I said in my frist post I like to clip bolts. Maybe the routes I saw were changed after they were frist put up. So I would be willing to talk to you or anyone on which routes I think should be changed, I just don't like to see bolts one foot away from a good looking cam or nut placement.

I must confess I don't know shit about the water table around banks lk. But I do know( from past years) what we need when I drive thru there. There is not as much water coming off all the routes as in past years, drauht or something else I don't know. This is the earlyist I have seen Ice form, at least to the size it is now. Pray for the cold to stick around and we could have a great season.

We need some if its going to get fat, but this could be a good start, just depends on the temps.

I love to clip bolts, but the routes there seemed to me to be in poor style, bolts were placed right next to cracks, which were big enought for a #1 camalot. And not just on one route. Why would someone put bolts in like that after all that has been said on it? I think it needs to be looked at.

Check it out today and there is ice at the punchbowl, deathsicles were too big for me to want to go under. Better hurry if you want to try it, they say it's going to warm up.

Lambone are you thinking new line?

There's ice at the North end of soap lk. might have to drive up the canyon this weekend and check it out.

You guys crack me up.

The 2nd pitch of Falling Falls, left side. The ice ran out and was in a jungle, tyed some webbing around some tree parts laying over the edge, after my parner climbs up and checks it out,they are not atached to the tree. He had a few things to say.

I don't see the legal connection, I thought people just wanted to know what happen, so it could be avoided next time.

Get well soon, did you make the Mole?

K what's the point?

Mitch, I seen the rope but I can't remember which it was. My parner is down in yos. climbing and won't be back til monday. Erden the rope was cut by the rescuers before they took him away. As soon as he gets back I will take a more careful look at it.
