Hey Krazy,
Use the email icon above the message to email me. My email address is not exposed but people can still email me. Looks like no climbing today...I'm going fishing.

It's getting late and I'm partnerless. Would like to get out for some cragging tomorrow. Climb up to mid 5.10. If interested email me.

Brad,
I'm interested in climbing. I'm free tomorrow, Sunday, 8/11? How's that for short notice? Email me.

Hello Chris,
I'm also a weekend warrior dad, also leading mid 10s, also seeking partner(s) for day trips to the local crags. I'm looking for a partner on Sunday. Send me email and let's climb.

Exfoliation Dome, West Buttress

How about Ellensburg, WA. Small town with a college. Lots of rock climbing potential in Leavenworth, Frenchman Coulee and the Yakima crags. Close to the cascades and skiing, mountaineering, etc. It's located on the east side so the weather (in my opinion) is better than the rain on the west side. Four seasons (hot in the summer, cold in the winter) but not much in the way of snow. Also, if you're into fishing Ellensburg is near some of the best in the state. I have no idea what the cost of living is.

I'll be backup if Jarred doesn't work out. See your email.

I stand corrected. I didn't mean to imply that new bolts had been added to an existing climb. I just assumed those shiny 3/8" bolts had replaced old originals. Thanks for the update Mattp.

Oops. I didn't pick up on the fact that the original post for this thread was in August.
Yes, Smoker, Total Soul has been retrobolted. Bring a standard rack as well.

Hey John,
We were the party next to you on Total Soul yesterday. Sounds like Silent Running is well worth doing. Total Soul was excellent. Highly recommended.

Any idea whether the closures include Duty Dome, Warrior Wall area. Looks like it might be on the border. I was hoping to climb there on Monday.

I climbed at Frenchman Coulee on Saturday and it was dry and warm/hot. It was very windy though. I wouldn't have wanted to be camping Saturday night because the wind was really cooking at dusk and there is no protection in the campground. You would've been confined to the tent.

digital cameras
in Climber's Board

I have the Kodak DX3600 and am very happy with it. It's a 2.3 mega pixel camera with 2x optical zoom. I think I paid about $280 plus $70 for a 128 MB memory card. It will hold about 200 pictures at full resolution. I frequently print shots up to 8x10 and get what appears to me to be the same quality as print film. I highly recommend it.
Comments or things to look for:
You will need an extra memory card. The amount of memory that comes with cameras is inadequate.
Look for cameras with optical zoom. It will not degrade picture quality. Digital zoom will degrade. Might as well do it with software at home.
A nice feature is a lens cap that automatically opens/closes when the camera is powered up/down.
