I talked to TAT yesterday. Same conditions as above.

Climbed there Thur and Fri 3/1-3/2. Routes are in good shape with the main wall being the leanest. Broke fresh trail thur on skis and went in fri on snowshoes. One other party on Fri and they postholed badly without flotation. There will be hordes of folks over the weekend so will prolly be bootable by Sun-mon. Bard Harrington receiving afternoon sun for about an hour. In order of wall length: Chouinard ~ a short pitch Main Wall ~1.5 pitches Bard-Harrington, ~ 3 pitches. Have fun.

Yes. And snowing again today.

The most delicious of ski conditions finally existed today.

Honestly the only reason I logged onto AMF was to see your new routes and pics from time to time. And the occasional informational post by Charlie etc. There is really very little useful info about Alaskan climbing there.

With an arm bar and a shindig.

Climbing has turned into one of the worst rags ever. I long for the days of Off Belay and Summit. Particularly the latter.

What a great route name. Cool line.

No, nutrients are found in middle earth and are the offspring off old tree Ents.

Alpinists. ...enjoy suffering so much they bring it in the bedroom. You dont expect me to chase down a coyote do you?

So what were the instructions? I've done it with the strap.

Ails whats good for ya

I pissed the water in the Coors can. figures

When Kim Reynolds does it, it is a much smaller step

Thread= shout box

Climbed BH wall yesterday. Route conditions remain about the same as original report however the approach trail is much more reasonable being mostly snow now. Edit: Actually after reading my original post its not the same. Left side of Chouinard is now in and BH prolly has more ice.

Holidays??

And when you die stumbling out from the bar and getting hit by a car, we'll all grieve for you just the same.

Far from being offended, I almost feel sorry for you. It must suck going thru life being such a dumb ass.

What he said...'cept they're like $10 now.

Good overlay mtnfreak. Didn't know about the fixed descent either. Had originally planned to climb Moynier but postholing on the glacier (ok you PNW'ers go ahead and laugh it up...)was enough to touch off my lazy streak and headed up Harrington. There was a hundred ft or so of ice at the top.

Trip: Mt. Thompson - Harrington couloir Date: 11/26/2006 Trip Report: Solo run up Harrington Couloir on Mt. Thompson. Was f*cking cold. AM conditions, Harrington is closest to buttress in middle of shot. PM conditions Pretty much a non-event as a climb, but nice summit views Descended the rib between Harrington and Smrz couloir for a couple hundred feet before jumping back into the Harrington for the remainder of descent. Pretty good option for avoiding N. ridge descent. Gear Notes: Dont bother Approach Notes: Wasn't too bad then.

You calling me a war-monger?

Bard Harrington and Chouinard is in. Main Wall is not close to being formed up yet. BH is thick and right side routes on Chouinard are thick with some aerated brittleness. Left side of Chouinard is still not formed. BH currently the best. PS Approach is quite sucky!

Better off dead?
