Do people know of the gem that can be Guye peak in winter? The S. Rib was truly a kick in the pants today! We tried to stay as close to the rib(next to the W. face) as possible and it was amazing to put it lightly >the ice was thin but the rock was protectable and sound with trees for belays .The adventure of it all was par excellence and I will repeat it with its many variations in the future. It has access and ambience except for maybe the traffic and skiers but it is a must do! Check it out if you havent already.......

If adventurous "mixed "is your thing Guye peak - S.Rib is in decent enough shape to be very fun. Just ask Stebbi and Lizzy"#6"Hawker . They fired it off in fine style!

Lizzy WILL move back to Washingtom to come to terms with Torment, Despair, and Terror. Isnt there a Mt. Agony ?

I am with Mr. Parker here with his no-show due to last minute cogs we thow to the party machine that is club! We will all miss dear Lizzy aka. Alpine Lightning, AKA Growler! Sake travel back to the Isle and Happy Holidays to you and All!!

What a great story! Thanks for bringing it to our attention. I would love to see that "sidewalk in the sky " too. Kit did some amazing stuff here, what else besides Selesse in winter did he do?

Lizzy You did great(it was her 2nd ice climb ever) Ray I need to see those pics is the link fixed? I also need your phone again I have a question for ya

We were all shocked to find out Icegirls real profession!

Speaking of Big Brother . I found that a few of the Nat. Park Service people spend a bit of time trolling this website as well.

Inspired by his mentor, Erden is planning a worthy adventure: To cycle to Denali and attempt the mountain up the Muldrow route! What a great tribute to a great adventurer: Goran Kropp! Lets all show our support through what ever we can offer be it encouragement , donations(go to REI seattle climbing dept),Heck loan him gear if he could use it. We can start a n encouraging thread here now too!!Lets hear some ideas.

Dont get me wrong here,Bone . I am not accusing the site of anything but inspiring people to do great things. It was a joy to share it with friends. It could however create crowds like what we saw and maybe a situation? I bivied high and got up early to ensure not getting beaned. As of today,This thread got 918 "veiws"

There were ,believe it or not, 13 people this weekend wanting to do that route!! Because of this website!! There were 2 smart ones that did it in a day (Saturday), And 2 other smart ones who descided it was too crowded to bother! It seemed the rest of the "Invasion " made it up the climb.

You would fall for her charms,Allison is cool!

I just saw the blender on the Mountaineers "50 Essentials List"

I cant tell you my first 2 projects, but I hope to see Europe and also do Bardean, tuning fork. Other projs: U-wall Squam, Nemisis, Mixed Master, Mt James Turner. Mt Logan-Super Traverse, Gimli

This only confirms: Cats would kill and eat us if they could!

I hate it when there is high Fruit-fall hazard!At least they are softer than rocks, I only know 2 people that where crazy enough to climb that thing in dry conditions and I wasnt one of them. Though there is a good dry route on Castle Crags Direct that almost is a classic IV-5.7.Good job on coming back alive!

I got mine yesterday and I was wondering when this was going to be a post.Didnt take long

As long as we are REI bashing , I was in there the other day and was amazed at how the clothing dept has taken over the whole store! The kids clothing is larger than the climbing dept. But try to find a pair of mens sweats that arent the color black!!

My Pro-patrol buddy said the rock is pretty much dry . When you guys go up there please look on the Reid side for me and tell me if there is ice looking stuff?

Spidey, I can go from dec 23-29 Pm me and ill give you a call

The gullies are in between the S. chamber area and the ridge line to the left . They are near the lowest point on the I-Rock itself. The s. chamber gully itself is a great 80 degree ice route itself if you take the easiest way up. One of my favorites is the ridge just right of the s. chamber
