  1. Will it be possible by end november?
  2. Are you receiving.... North Face Index is waiting
  3. Sounds too complicated. Who is evaluating YOU? My friends (no climbing experience at all, but good in simple planning) summitted last June and the trip was only two weeks.
  4. Is there a website of Cold Cold World, manufacturer of Backpacks? I would like to compare the Wild Things Icesac (previous post) with the CCW Chaos model.
  5. We did it last year during Labor weekend. Pretty much a scramble up along the right hand side of the unnamed pocket glacier (which I wanted to name "Used Diaper") until the sole gendarme. Place a wand there on the crest so that it is visible from the other side. It helped me in a debate with my partner which gully to climb back up after we rapped from the summit. The climb itself is neat when you climb all gendarmes. As Smoker said bring lots of slings. The last two pitches are easy climbing. If you run out of time (as several parties have) there are several ridges where you can rap. I remember that I saw just about on every ridge abondened slings. The climb was great, however, the hail storm and fog we had prevented us from the great views I was hoping for. (Although I took a same pic from my partner with the Boston G. in the backdrop just as in Nelson's book. About the rating, the notch is probably the most difficult. I noticed that if you do your traverse a fair amount below the ridge it climbing looks much easier. This labor weekend I will be climbing it again. With me a group of 9 climbers will be camping in the BB and climbing that weekend several peaks. It's going to be again a damn busy party.
  6. Anyone knows whether Wild Things still is in business? I am trying to get a hold of the Ice Sac model.
  7. Anyone scaled the west face of Boston Pk via the Sahale-Boston col lately?
  8. I'm game. It's like blind dating. And hopefully my gear fits the Crux.
  9. Huh...M-courses versus Battlecages versus smokin pot versus...I'm totally messed. So do we have (inter)course after the battlecage is done?
  10. LMAH, This is way hilarious!!!
  11. Who wants to join me next month on Shuksan. I will be wearing hob nail boots, Tweed jacket and pants and climb with an old fashion wooden ice axe and a Hennep rope.
  12. The guides of today have a minuscul cranium capacity; there very low on the foodchain, working their ass off for miserable pay believing that they are king. We chuckle and think "another looser" when someone says "I'm a guide.."
  13. hmm..
  14. Just came back from Serpentine. Enjoyable climb. Descended via Colchuck which is in good condition. Like to repeat climb in July. Any interest?
  15. zzz...zzzz...zzz..
  16. A party of eight being four teams (some chicks)will be climbing serpentine, backbone and some other routes on may 27. Expect to find lots of whizzin and trashing parties en route if you join in that weekend.
  17. We will be on serpentine Sunday May 27th. Our rival dorm team of six will be whizzin backbone and adjacent around the same time. If your planning for that weekend expect to find on-going bullish parties en route.
