  1. Trip: Goose Egg - Commandho Pillar Date: 7/24/2011 Trip Report: Climbed this one with Bryan on Sunday. Good route that deserves more traffic All the beta you need is here I would add/edit for Pitch 3 clip 2 bolts before moving right (not just one). We were able to rap from the top of pitch 6 with a single 70 meter rope. Not sure if you could do it with a single 60. Dont let the grade fool you... you can easily make this 5.10- Gear Notes: Didnt place anything larger than a #2. Yellow c3 and .4 and .5 cam most common piece
  2. I've got 4 long snargs I'd sell you. PM or email if interested
  3. Looking for a PRG partner for tonight, Wednesday and/or Thursday this week. 7:30 pm till you tap.
  4. Isnt a weekend trip considered cragging?
  5. CRAGGING: Jason Stuckey on the traverse pitches of the West Face Couloir on Mt Huntington, Alaska in March 2011 HUMOR: Dylan Johnson doing his best "a young Mark Westman" impersonation on the summit ridge of the Moose's Tooth, Alaska in April 2010. See pg 147 of Puryear's Alaska Climbing guidebook for the original

  7. I alternate between fish and plant oils to ensure my omega 3s and 6s are balanced which will both thin your blood but I've never had an issue at altitude... Then again oil doesnt exactly come with a warning label where as your prescription does... I'd ask Kevino on this board what he thinks
  8. Though not specifically ice screws new data supporting screamers from BD: Screamers?
  9. Optimum Sports Nutrition by Colgan is a good start
  10. Nice work dudes! One of the best in the cascades And yes for sure avoid the OW! Stay climbers right of it
  11. If they get 50% of the their proposed agenda completed in 2012 I will be very impressed.
  12. Nice work dudes! Let me say it: with the ample snowpack this would be an excellent year to do the girth pillar via the ice cliff and likely find it dry. Hint hint...
  13. ICE: Aaron Mulkey on pitch 4 of The Big Sleep Hyalite Canyon, WI5+/6- 4p Original TR here
  14. Buy the Newest, Lightest, Shiniest Gear Or You Could Die I'm not going to name any names
  15. :laf: Well done team. Next time car to car!
  16. 1st pitch is 3/3+... it doesnt need to be super fat as you can get really good rock gear (1/2-3/4" crack) on the right... as long as it hasnt delaminated I think you could get up it safely. We belayed the 1st 2 pitches (wee bit of simul to get second belay) and simul climbed the rest of the route. I could see belaying the last pitch to the ridge if the cornice is big but we didnt.
