  1. I'm down, check your pm's
  2. I'm interested Scott, check your pm's.
  3. Can't come to my rescue again this time? I think the helmet was stolen while I left my pack unattended at the UW for about ten minutes earlier this summer.
  4. Lost a white helmet with red cross and jolly roger stickers on it some time this summer in the seattle area. Don't really know where or when lost, just couldnt find it when it came time to climb.
  5. Anybody got those days off, wanna go climb Eldorado with me? Or anything else for that matter, I'm flexible.
  6. Do you mean Glacier Ridge Josh? If you went up Kennedy Ridge you would have had to cross the Kennedy Glacier to get to Frostbite Ridge and the Rabbit Ears.
  7. Hey I was up there with my out-of-shape dad on Saturday too and was just above Anvil Rock when the lightning really started. Up till then the entire pack train was buzzing as everybody's ice axes and pickets became lightning rods, but I wasn't concerned until my hair started standing up . There were like three huge flashes of lightning with thunder cracks that were nearly simultaneous, so that means like less than 400 yards away. Almost everyone turned around then, if they weren't already turned off by the hail and snow. I've never been that exposed in a thunder storm and it scared the hell out of me, a feeling that was accentuated by the never-ending whine of the electrons harmonzing with my ice axe. Good snow conditions and a quick descent though.
  8. Anybody been up to Alpental and seen the ice drip lately? How's it look?
