The removal of the toilets is a good thing. Nobody used them for the last six months due to their state. Overflowing with terds and garbage. Now we just need to figure out how to get permanent pit toilets installed.
single wall tents usually work well in s. America. weather is not as extreme as alaska and usually temps rise decently during the day helping to dry the tent out. Used a Integral Desings MK1 Lite and a Bibler Fitzroy both single wall both worked well.
Looking for a partner for all or some of these days for technical alpine route(s) or water ice (wi3-5). A trip to bozeman or banff/canmore would be fun, local alpine routes if they are in would also be an option, open to ideas. I could possibly also get the 13th free. Send me a PM.
so does this route climb the blank slab at the top or do you rap off the bolt with the old sling. doesnt seem to bad to redpoint if you dont climb the slab
laying down after a workout is a sign of mental weakness. Also if all those crossfit weenies keep puking after workouts there gonna build a bad habit and puke when they get marginally tired on their "alpine" climbs.
whoever got on Zenith today was lucky. That line was looking super good. Im jealous it was taken. Thats what you get for waking up late. children of the sun was super crappy ice, too much sun. But still fun.
Trip: Frenchmans Coulouee-Fugs Falls
Date: 1/24/2008
Trip Report:
This afternoon soloed Fugs Falls. Overall OK conditions. Good sticks but lots of running water underneath. First pitch easy. Second pitch felt WI4- but would of protected marginally. Tried to get on Arctic Grail with AlpineMonkey aka craig but the first ten feet was about to fall off as he went up so he downclimbed. Frenchmanns falls looked decent but had lots of running water behind it. Running Gear death wall not in at all. Will post a few pics later.
