Cool! Where is that? Name?

Where is that?

Columbia Gorge Ice! Post your photos! Mist Falls 1/14/2024 Left a V thread and backup screw 80-90' up. Use at your own risk. Likely will be under a bunch of ice tomorrow. Have fun, be safe! -Kip

Yes, any photos?!

Here's a few photos from today in the Columbia Gorge. We TRd Cruiser and Water Heater at the West Bridal Veil Area. Crux was driving to the climbs with multiple closures. Both were in WI 3ish wet condition. So fun!!! I'll post some more pics if I get some from my partner.

Yesterday we were up at the Wombat and I noticed a rung of metal ladders going up one of the steepest faces. Anyone know what's up with that?! Kip

Well said my friend! Thanks to you and Joseph for sharing the trip with us!! Congrats on an epic adventure!!!! Fantastic TR. -Kip

I'm free this Sunday-Weds and want to climb rock as many of the days as possible. Thinking Vantage... Anyone want to climb any / or all of those days? I'm leading 5.9 - 5.10 trad / sport. Follow easy 11s. Text / Call is best: 503-437-four eight six two or email: climbkip@gmail.com -Kip

Would you be interested in climbing at Vantage on Sunday? I'm only free Sunday.

Looking to get out this Tues and / or Weds. Probably most interested in Leavenworth or Snoqualmie Pass. I climbed Goatee and at the Millenium Wall today, yesterday at Rainbow Falls. I'm leading WI 3/4. Have all needed ice gear. Give me a call if interested: 503-437 four eight six two or email: climbkip@gmail.com Cheers, KIp

I'm going to be living in Mazama this winter. I'm looking for climbing partners. Looking to get out on ice, rock, and alpine routes. I backcountry ski too. No snowmobile (yet!)... I work as a ski patroller at Snoqualmie Pass and am work-less until we open (soon?!). When we get rolling my schedule varies, but I typically have weekends and a couple of weekdays free. If you're up for adventuring in the Mazama, Leavenworth, or Snoqualmie Pass area give me a call or email. Cheers, Kip 503-437-four eight six two climbkip@gmail.com

thanks, yeah. Chris' car is already full...

I'm hoping to get out to the Bozeman ice fest. I'm still working out logistics, but thought I'd see if anyone had room in their car or would want to ride with me and chip in for gas. I'm pretty flexible on leaving times. Give me a call, Kip 503-437-four eight six two

I'm looking to get out tomorrow (Sunday). I have screws, rope, tools, etc. (And a car) I've climbed at Mist falls a couple of times, but have climbed maybe 40 pitches of ice elsewhere. I'm also interested in Monday / Tues if the ice holds. Cheers, Kip

Hey! looking to do some craging out at vantage this weekend. I'm planing on being out there Friday - Sunday. I have a partner for Friday, but not for the other two days. Anyone wanting climb any / all of Fri / Sat / Sun? shoot me an email or text (i'll be off email starting tomorrow):

Hey Dave, I have a scattered schedule -- I work as a Ski Patroller at Summit Central on various weekdays. I'm off this Weds. You interested in heading out to Vantage for the day? email or phone is best: kip.beckwith@gmail.com 503-437-4862 I'll be looking for weekday partners through March. -Kip
