How To Question; placing screws on steep ice...
Stemalot replied to rockermike's topic in Ice Climbing Forum
Placing screw on difficult ice is part of the sport. You can hang, but you haven't done the climb clean. Go leashless (I've switched this season). Because you can easily switch hand positions and from hand to hand. It's like hang on to jugs all day. -

great adventure guys! good on you for taking the hard way out. -
access via Mystery Creek should be fine. also, depending on which Chehalis group one is going to, access should be ok.

glad I went else where! -
Sweet! Some action from the island! I went backcountry skiing at the abandoned resort years ago and remember seeing a nice road side bluff just plastered with thick ice (my estimated...about 30 metre high)!!! If I remember correctly the rock face is about 1-2 km before the first chalet at the resort or I think it's located just before the logging road turns slightly uphill towards the chalet. Regardless, it's not a long walk to get to. As far as I know of at the time, the ice is still virgin... Maybe things have changed?

I remember that photo. The caption for that photo said something like: "XXX climbing on the Chief." I got a good laugh out of it.
