Took a 20fer on a bat hook!Itheld me from a 60 fer

Belay WARNING Hyperspace!

Big K will have an answer for you when he sees the thread, Is that a recent pho?. Sloan is lookin sshix.

The rock is very compact and offers little pro outside of the main crack systems( of whic there are very few) . The wall is 85-95 degrees steep and is 3-5 pitches tall with a rounding off top. The approach os a grunt and there wont be much in the way of aid lines outside of hooks. It would be a sport paradise though but for the hieght and the approach

I can get away at 230 ,with planning, from downtown Seattle. Climbs I have in mind: Improbable traverse, Guye Red pk Thompson ( can it be done in that time frame?) Japanese Gardens Centerfold I bicycle from Bainbridge Is.You would need to drive but I will pay gas.These plans dont have to be immediate, Wayne

was my post a victim of the server crash?

Cool, I have seen the pics and I am reasonably sure you did RDog. I have only been waiting a dozen or so years for this place to catch on. There are some sick routes on the nw face other wise all the rts are on the topo,I originally did the rt with Leesa Azar then repeated it with Jeff Alzner. Its a stiff route but wait till you try April insanity or the SW ridge proper!! Oh the really sic rts are on the NW face though.. Wayne

You just did the 3rd ascent of Rime Dog under thin conditions. Sorry to burst any sort of bubble.

Only the top 25 feet of the sunshine wall was blasted and some stuff at the base was taken, the rest is fairly pristine. One problem occuring is the rts are getting mossed over again.

Quit posting that picture! Too bad thats such bad rock and the ice is so rotten!

Dang Klenk,nice work, you are as geeky as I am with my charts and lists.

Duh, you cant see it in the picture ,but dont you think I may have seen it in a location before on clear days??? I have a friend who insists Stuart is visible and I have seen a big peak before way back in the range. Look for it on the next clear day,

It is, but it is so far away it just looks like a big snowy peak right now. I have done Bonanza and the only way youd see Seattle is at night like they did. There is a posibility " I " is Stuart.

Thanks again John Roper and John Scurlock. We just have to figure out a way to keep Colin from seeing them!

Nice work Guys!!. I am sure that Bonanza itself is visible in picture #2 It may be ironically enough # I . Martin Volken said the all of Seattle was visible on his 3 summit -traverse trip. Especially at night on their summit bivy.

I have been waiting for someone to pipe in with that!!!!!! I feel the same way, It just wasnt an opportunity I could just pass up. Let it be known that they invited me to write it. Thanks Pete.

I am trying to get a carpool going there from Seattle . Anyone interested?

its no secret that I am a chart-geek. I have shared several of them on this board... It is a game I do for myself and thats it. As for the t-shirt thing, I never sold any for my climbs. I have made some to commemorate a couple of significant routes as gifts to partners and that is also it. Too bad I cant be just like everyone else

My formula is simple Take the time you have grab your best partner and do the biggest thing on your list that you may be able to pull off. as for my list of what to do. it is attached with this post 447710-Whattodo.txt.doc

its no secret there are dry crags in pdux. places in broughtons, madrone,smitz, and beacon stay dry. We will let you think that you are the first though if it helps.As for that "alpine chick", cant help you there, your on your own.

ya I had to catch the ferry with Bremerton John, but good show and it looked like you did what you shoulda : you guys had A Great Time on the trip and it showed . the nude pics had me concerned though

Bump, its today.Should be good picks.

14 attempts on the GCD(Black Spider),and counting. It occurred to me I have maybe jinxed it by pre-naming it

Henry Barber

woah,ok, Polish or Canadian. I will bet there are ice streaks that form on the thing. Dru, what the deal with the Flatirorn,north face ?
