  2. Ich weiß nicht, warum Papst in seinem Schlafsack klar wird, noch ich wünsche zu jetzt. That is between you and Papst
  3. It needs to be in the 30's in seattle for that route to come in thats the impression that I get... Just Curious why is it Jim's book if it hasn't been repeated and its very unlikly for the average person who buys jims book to want to do that route

    I don't think you want to take a leader fall on that choss but you could probably get a FA if you tried
  6. I lost a ski up on the muir snowfeild this year
  7. Don't forget your dry suit and regulator the next time you head up there
  8. Buddy you are in the wrong state for ice Dave
  9. Really if you watch the temps, they haven’t been as high as forecasted due to inversion layers ambient temp is one thing and radiation is another. Dave
  10. Go climb it then you will find the current condition. I am guessing not that bad but not that much snow on the route Dave
  11. Thanks for the beta I will remember that on the route....
  12. I am interested in this route too. I wasn't sure but shouldn't it be colder then it is now. ??? Beta is good too... dave
  13. why would you tie in with an overhand with half ropes why not use a figure 8
  14. I thought the Euro death knot is the same as a figure 8 but with two ropes tied together.
  15. I think it was only a slightly dimpled chad David so it didn't count
  16. I use a fishermans all of the time for my V-threads... But when I hook up with the canadains they use an overhand for their V-thread it kinda urks me... Using an overhand to Rap with I started using it recenctly in all situations rock or ice but I have climbing partners that tell me stories of the knot comming untied.. You you heard of any such stories or are the just rummors
  17. I have gone both ways on this knot, how many people use the overhand knot for rapping and tying their V-threads.
  18. who's up for taking for some extreme ironing on the top of rainier with me this winter. I will need a photographer

    If you look at that way... Alpine skiers and snowboards are like sport climbers. And tele skiers that pertend they are trad climbers so in essences they bring there trad rack to smith and climb super slab and cinnimon crack and that is there life story

    both of them serve there purpose in the BC I do both and I have both. Tele is a lot more work and more pure of a turn. But You can ski longer hard faster on AT. Tele boots are easier to walkin and AT boots are better to ice climb in. So it totaly depends on what the trip agenda is. SO I do both and they are both great.
  23. Dale isn't that the same pic that you summited to Climbing for there day timer. Dave
  24. These screws are great but if you... but it is nothing worse then being pumped out and trying to get the screw off your rack when you have shit tangled around the handle of the 360 been there done that. I don't know but they get tangled on the harnass very easy no matter how experanced you are. I am not willing to spend the time on a climb to find another racking method when the racking method I use now works great Dave
