that face looks like fun, looks a lil like a mini darrington.. but looks to have some potential!

Just did Le Petit Cheval on Sat, a great climb. I am impressed on the work to clean up the approach and climb. Nice work. Fun climb and very straight forward easy route finding. I ended up coming down the gully wishing I rapped the route..fairly slow moving unless your rolling..

any chance you can give us a lil more beta on the Ice Cliff?

Thanks for the words Chris, f@*king clownpuncher!!!!!!!!

BWR and I at the notch decided to head down since there was a storm moving in pretty fast and we knew we werent going to be going down too fast, me with my knee hurting and I was BEAT but I knew I had to save some energy for the shwack back.. The descent to the cars felt never ending . But the coulior was definatly very enjoyable and an amazing area, would like to get back there and play on Argonaut..

Well I will guess and say you can probally get atleast a mile from the TH. But in 2-3 wks it will be nice, but if you prefer a snow free approach maybe june. There is a fairly easy route that goes at 5.3 but everyone says it feels harder, which I think if you had a compitent leader you shouldnt have a problem following it if you practiced cleaning gear prior to the climb. Its got some great climbing and is well worth the time to get in there

does that mean there is a great boot pack into the lake...

hugged a tree.

come hang, drink, oh yeah climb in Smith.

if thats the seam to the left of Don Q that merges onto the face I what some young buck climb it last summer

thanks for the beta fruit cake

There are a bunch DT routes in spokane but most people dont know or dont climb there.

Lotus..

you can also get ccw here in WA from Mountain goat or Mtn Gear. Great packs, if you want mods though go to randy

I think that was philip Pellet?, the finger rest was a lil different

yeah, there is no grip, a lil grip tape would be nice. Like the grivel light wing

and the good pizza at Le Caveau

at the high mtn office there is a book filled with people looking for partners. real easy to meet people. that might be easier than finding a local to hire, most local climbers are guides

like he mentioned there is a Office Du Tourisme on Place de L'eglise, I still have a map... I thought the best hostel was Red Mountain Lodge, Sofas, dvd player, things like that. 20 euros a night you can even get your own spot, but for 16 you get the dorm. There are a bunch off hostels but only 2-3 close to town. This one is real close and a Cafe right across the road. There is a lot of info online, check Chamonix.net.. You can find food pretty cheap if you look, Pizza is the best though.. Hope this helps. Pm me if you have any questions

do the Frendo
