    above plus add east buttress (5.9 A0 on bolts) and SW rib (5.8) of south early winter spire. the west face of n early winter spire is pretty good too if you are ok with 20 feet of A1 thru the 5.11 crack bits.

    just heard about happening this week. I think it may the 3rd pitch but not certain. Looks like there are still some loosey goosey rocks hanging there and if it is the 3rd pitch, then the belayer and anyone below would be in the line of fire. I suspect the local guides will be cleaning it up soon but just a heads up.

    his plan is still 3 weeks out and a lot can happen condition wise in the mean time. winds from north (rare) could scour all than new snow pretty quick. a bit of warm and cold temps could make it in good nick shape. But you are probably more right than wrong on the wallowfest conditions.

    I do not know if we were first on anything. the usual mode is that Darin has a great idea for an adventure and I get to enjoy his hard work. we did do some tour from mt herman down chain lakes and over and around and somehow got back down to the baker highway, maybe near the XC parking lot. great day but to be honest, i had no idea where I was. luckilly Darin waited for me to make sure I did not get lost. I was on a old voille splitboard and he was on skiis, so if it was a first, it was a double first!

    the knuckle contests are the only event that i can watch. so much creativity and personal flare in such a small feature. the events with massive jumps seem to become a confusing (for a spectator) amount of flips and turns that I have no idea what happened. was it 5 or 6 360's with 3 corks and a butt scratch? Amazing for sure but I am just too clueless to see what is going on.

    I feel your sentiment and agree with SC being a dick BUT as far as I know, he is still alive RIP Marc.

    Ok. Just set up the ledge will attach photos. Not sure how large you want. To be ultra light, it seems small but I have never slept on a portal edge so what do I know? I included photos showing dimensions, outside to outside edges.

    don't beat yourself up so much. Ya gotta remember that all that goofiness and dedication was in his early 20's, a time when it is easier to avoid the rigors of life demands. I sure wish he was around to inspire us in his early 30's.

    this must a record TR for you. You usually are not a subject in photos but this time you made it in 5 images. Good thing to climb with someone who knows and likes to take photos too. great TR.

    convince the mountain bikers that they need trails that happen to scoot near the cave. them guys (evergreen mountain bike alliance) are trail builders extraordinaire.
