Was going to climb Mount Stuart (Ulrich's Couloir) but wasn't sure the avy conditions were ideal so I went climbing at Tieton and bought a new house. Pretty non-eventful.

Any of the slab climbs at Marymoor Park

I climbed in my hiking boots and carried my snowboard boots. It was more comfortable that way. I was also going for two runs and didn't want my feet getting hashed from my board boots. Hope you have a good run.

A friend and I climbed the Easton Sat. We made the summit with a couple of skiers. We met back up with the skiers at the bottom and the told us that they had to help a snowmobiler out of a crevasse. Apparently the rider saw it but thought it was narrow enough to ride over but it was undercut and fell out form beneath him dropping him 80 ft. Apparently he was gone for an hour. The other riders ended up finding him by his avy beacon. The other riders tried to get him out but they only had a 40 ft rope. As luck would have it, the skiers came upon there dilema and used there rope and harness to get the guy out. The lucky guy only had a cut on his lip and a new respect for crevasses.

Mt.Baker. Broke wrist in Dec. so I cant climb yet

Hi Colt. Although I think strength can be important on 5.12s and up I would probably try also working on the mental aspects of the climbing game such as controlling stress and tension before the climb and on the climb, thinking positively, differential relaxation, ect. To climb at harder levels than I was used to, I had to work on my physical, technical, and mental performance.Just didn't want strength training to be your only focus in your quest to improve your climbing. Peace
