It was fun. We drank beer My head hurts.

I hope some people show up besides me, TimL, and MikeAdam See you there around 6 ish if you show.

I was pretty fast last season before my beer gut grew For you to say it is a mile is kinda funny. I thought it was like 1/2 mile. I don't read the books much and give it a gut feeling. I think I could still make it in 5 minutes... You can boulder on the sides and in moats. This time of year there would not be anything big enough to avie and kill you from the face. I doubt there would be anything but rox falling of the face for a while at least.. Don't let one man's reference as nothing to do deter you if you want a cool bouldering day to check out your tools.

No glacier. They are basically avalanche debris snow sitting at the base of a large rock face. It is in the green book. You are going to head out towards the area near Mt Pilchuck and keep going... Lots of parking. Last year I saw where some waterfalls could form. I am sure they have already been done.... The ice is good and is like glacier ice. I don't think it is sketchy I just put in the fair warnings. You don't necessarily need to climb inside the caves. THere is ice on the outside and plenty of it.

Go to Big 4 mtn(details are in the Beckey Book and if you cannot find it then well.. You must be shmokin dope). The walk is 5 minutes on an easy trail. Wear your helmet. Rox fall off the mtn there. I have nearly been hit more than once when getting close to the face. Drive is not too far. I don't remember the time though. Most of what I could have done there last time was boulder and toprope. Most of what I saw was 20 feet or less but maybe someone else has seen or done differently. I don't recommend getting inside the caves. They are known to collapse without warning and have killed people. I think it would be a great spot to boulder around alone. [ 11-06-2001: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]

Ok I wont thrash on you cuz you can't spell too

Kewl Sean, I hope to see you there as well as members of the cell phone posse

I think it was Boving too. Well if you say it is harder than many other 11c's I will take your word on that dude. I would be standing in my aiders on it anyway....

Maybe most people have bigger fingers and hands than you and it makes it easier. Not that I would know but just a thought...... Never done it, probably never will.

We pushed upward through the jungle.When not forcing a way for ourselves and our heavy packs through festoons of alder, we were taunted by jabs of devil's club or the prickly needles of Engelmann spruce.... The Southern Pickets beckoned me twice more, though not until memories of our original experience with the approach had somewhat dimmed.

I just asked who she was Lammy. I noticed your renewed sense of passively agressively lashing out on me and Dru recently...... Chill.

Here's one for the Canyuckers "Although there were some good technical climbers north of the border, there was a general feeling when it came to big walls, they were dabbling in coloring books while Yosemite and other American climbers were painting masterpieces." Statement about another party from Vancouver attempting to beat Fred to the 1st ascent of Slesse's NE Butt. [ 11-06-2001: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]

It's all 5.8 until you crater!

Nobody wants to drink with Humptree?

Hamms is the best Yummy! I can import it if the girls like it Otherwise I dont think so hahah.

Wow Supercrack for real? Send me a PM I might go up there to shoot some photos of that if you don't care....

Sounds fun. Isn't ROTC the 5.8+ finger crack that Beckey freed in 1948? I bet it was friggin cold up there. What next round 2 free solo it? One of these days I will lose my beer gut and have a chance too. Yeah right [ 11-05-2001: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]

Hahhaha. Well good for them I was the target that got hit instead of them. My pack was not discovered until summer too. I rewarded homeboy Now I carry a snorkel Plus if I remember correctly we broke the trail first and barely missed it... I guess you were not there [ 11-05-2001: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]

It's next to Easter Island

quote: Originally posted by sexual chocolate: I don't know, Captain, all-around alpine stuff. Maybe a winter ascent of Rainier, some ice climbing, maybe even some mixed stuff. Hopefully, one boot will work for all of that.... I have never climbed Rainier in winter. I use an older model of Koflach that works fine for everything myself including ice climbing and hill walkers alps in the summer. I never have mixed climbed.

I picked down yo' goathomey dere and stole ha' mumy den dumped ha' out on de bridge. What it is, Mama! ah' stole mah' boots fum some wasted kinyucka' bitch. Right On!
