I'd also really like to see chalk buckets @ each belay station so that I can refill my chalk ball for the next pitch.

You guys are out of toliet paper @ the tree ledge again too

From where you park I'd estimate ~1500 -> 2000' give or take. But to stay consistent with Cody ratings I'd say 500' of 3rd and 4th class and maybe some WI2. :laf: Cody: full value ratings. The way it should be.

Only ice on this trip... but since you asked the south fork has a few unclimbed choss mountains... real big ones in fact...

Toes did great though w/ temps in the high 20s I dont know if it was a true test of function. Still... great to log day 2 on ice

Trip: Cody - Carter Mtn Date: 11/15/2008 Trip Report: South Fork Love baa baa baa baa baa Gear Notes: 1.99/gallon from ID -> WY Approach Notes: Many many thanks to Aaron Mulkey of Core Mtn Sports in Cody for all the beta, info and updates. If you're in town drop in and spend some $$$ in his shop! Support the guy that checks conditions weekly and installed most of the anchors out there!

Illumination rock. Topo is on Wayne's page. Have fun

Selkirk: take Braydon climbing and skip work... if you're lucky you'll get fired! Two birds with one stone! pub club in cody saturday night... first round is on me!

Rob will be back in PDX Jan 17/18... seminar topics are listed on his webpage. Additionally this time he will also be bringing with him an Exum guide or two who will be lecturing on fast/light tactics/techniques. The last PDX seminar sold out weeks before... if you're serious about attending I would sign up sooner than later. PM me or email Rob if you have any questions/etc etc

Check out Rob's youtube channel... he is doing some evil preseason WODs for his skiers/boarders also... snowboard burpees... step ups + static hold in boots... evil but simple effective shit. Get some athlete!

That and a ton of info on Coast Mtn climbing and ice climbing and great TRs

Thanks for posting Joe!

Cool beans Bill! You can do the same drill with a peg board (I have on in my backyard) and real ice tools. Here's what I want for warm soggy November days! [video:youtube] I have all the materials to build one (including the system tiles!)... I'm just waiting as we might be moving again If anyone in PDX wants to train (rock or ice) send me a PM!

Thanks dude! Great beta as always How's the approach right now? Snowshoes needed?

Really good chance

Do them at the same time: Mountain Athlete Sessions

:rawk: :rawk: Awesome guys! Looks like an awesome event for a great cause!

If you feel so strongly you should write a letter to a congressperson/representative for every 5 posts you make here.

CC has helped me grow some thick skin over the years so I wasnt offended per say... I just wondered if you all really meant what you were saying (do you?). Having known a few people (parents and parents to be) who have been in that situation I cant help but feel empathetic to their situation independent of their party affiliation. And I'm not trying to come across as holier then though... I know Ive caught myself taking pleasure in others fuck ups... Limbaugh's pill popping comes to mind... but I try not to as doing so is stooping to their level IMO. But regardless: please dont stop posting Minx. I think you are one of the few that makes solid contributions in spray. And yes... they have been far far worse threads on cc. Tvrashtalker: "freak" is what I most commonly hear.

I'm in PDX but I'm flying out on the 1st One thing I might suggest is just meet in Ritzville and carpool from there (assuming some of your party is from SEA and some is from PDX). If you are going let me know and we can meet up on Sat or Sun for a pub club

That hint might be enough to tip off Westman or Puryear

The occasional TR or a donation to cc.com would be plenty. Thanks

WTF is wrong with you people? Do you act like this in person? Even your president elect has gone on the record that families are off limits. Please.

Same with Braydon I believe. That still gets you there in time for all of the activities minus one slide show on the 4th. If you're thinking about going and are looking for beta/etc PM me or give me a call and I can give you beta/etc I know Roger Strong is teaching a clinic and giving a slide show one of the nights with Rob Owens five 0 three 7 five 8 five 5 seven 2
