This is how Hubba Hubba main flow looks right now

Took WMs advice and climbed Hubba Hubba main flow today. It is true that there is some good ice in shape in washington. Adding to WM's list, what I think is Chandelier falls by Lake Wenatchee was looking really good.

Thanks WM. The forecast said eastside lowlands would stay cold glad that they did.

That will be Dru's post count when he finally gets a girlfriend and can spend less time spraying.

I'm still going too, just hate stupid weather.

Why does it have to get so warm right before the weekend. 44 right now on tumwater mountain, and 36 at the top of alpental. Apparently it is staying cold down low and temps are supposed to drop again by Monday. Why couldnt this happen two days ago.

http://www.tite-grip.com/ I have chronicly sweaty clammy hands, and have been a compulsive chalk user since I started climbing. Even with chalk, my hands are soaked a few moves into a difficult route, doing little to inspire confidence. I got some samples of this stuff early in summer. Some of the samples were already dried up when they arrived, but a few were intact, so I tried them. The seemed to work great, but with only enough goo for a couple days, it was hard to reach a conclusive decision. This fall I got fed up with sweaty hands and decided to buy some production tubes of the stuff. It doesn't work miracles, but it is still a great product, especially when used with chalk. No more chalking up three times on three move boulder problems at the gym. The other day I forgot to put the goo on before going to the gym and really noticed how well the stuff worked by its absence. Anyhow, if you have sweaty hands too, you might want to try this stuff out. I am also thinking about trying it on my feet, but havent yet. Seems like it could really help there as well.

I have some beta on pretty good traffic. Some good beginner routes are 405 through bellevue between 3:30 and 5:00 I5 north around 4:00 trying to get on the express lanes The front street exit in issaquah is more of an advanced route, might want to wait a few years before you earn enough experience for that.

The route is probably the NE Slab. It is covered thoroughly in Nelson's 2nd volume.

Bindings are up now.

Will most Tele bindings work with mountaineering boots? Thinking about picking these up even if I just use them as approach skis

I agree John. I think with ice climbing, everyone wants to protect the ice for themselves, but if info on lots of areas is out there, it should hopefully disperse things a little. Also, hopefully it keeps people from driving somewhere on a whim and entertaining themselves on partially formed ice and ruining something for the rest of the season.
