  1. No, out of town going S! You must be thinking of Skookumchuck Falls or Whiskey Dick Falls, Alex. Hey goatboy, if you want directions shoot me a pm and ill get some for you. Its kind of hard to find if your not familiar with the area. In fact, really hard to find...I bet it is still really nice, but remember its only like 30 feet tall, but its still fun to get some swings in if your driving by. Craig
  2. 1 vote for rage.
  3. Next thing ya know, we will all be climbing nude. Then we'll have some real "ice porn" to post on cc.com. Good job today Andy!
  4. Has anyone been up Red Mountain, Snoqualmie, Lundin, or any other peaks in the viscinity in the last few days.
  5. Snow creek is ready.
  6. My friend was climbing ice in tee-shirt and shorts today. Super nice ice, way thick (still at least a foot thick, size doesnt seem to be changing), lots of fun.
  7. On the way to do some Vantage rock? Desperate to climb some ice? Stop at Umtanum falls and do some laps. The drip is the fattest I have ever seen it, about a foot thick as of 3 days ago. Perfect styrofoam ice. It appears to be melting during the day (temps in the 60's) and freezing at night. Very cool.
  8. I was thinking about going for a swim in the lakes up there. Such nice weather.
  9. As anyone hiked up the PCT? I was wondering how things were looking.
  10. Indeed, there are better climbs.
  11. Griffo, you were on route, it does go to the tree. You will know your on route if you cliped the one piton just below the crux. Although it appears you have joined the buttress while on the climb, its still actually the east face. Below is a link to my write up last year. There is a good picture showing the route. Chair Peak - East Face Chair peak is just a fat odd ball mountain.
  12. Bolt climbing is neither. Yeah, lets go. By the way, I got some gas cash for you.
  13. I want Colin and Mark to pay me for the nice snowshoe trail I stomped out to the campsight. Or at least give me credit for helping them out. (We broke trail two weeks ago when we tried the Ice Cliff, went back there this week and everyone has used the same exact trail, except its now like a highway.)
  14. I believe there is someone on this site that might know a thing or two on those cliffs, and others?, maybe they will chime in in a little bit.
  15. I read in a medical book if that you use it for a week before going into wet places it should last for a month and prevent your feet from sweating.
  16. Has anyone ever sprayed antipersperent on your feet, or hands to keep them from sweating in your boots and gloves. Any ideas on the subject? Bad or good?
  17. Guye Peak : Eastern Washington :: Whiskey Dick Mountain : Alpine Lakes
  18. So you jacked my biner and slings? Good work. I wish I could have been up there.
  19. Screw you. I'm jealous. You couldn't have done it if it were not for my pictures though, right?
  20. I admit it, I forgot to take my vitamins in the morning, thus, I didn't keep my core temperature warm enough. It fell down 371 Kelvins. I am a fat kid and I sweat a lot. Are some of you guys really bored or something? I am, thats why I keep responding to your whacky comments. Some of you guys make me laugh. Yeah Ade, your right, it is a very light boot and it only takes strap crampons. But, plastics sure sound nice right now. Thanks for the suggestions.
  21. Yeah Ade, those are the ones I own right now.
  22. Yeah, I have been eyeing those. I bitch when I have to pay 99 cents for a sniker bar, but I have no problem throwing down money for climbing. When it comes to climbing, cost is no object.
  23. Hey, I like how you took apart certain words I said and reagranged them to make it sound like I said something different. There is a name for that. It's done in politics a lot. You should run for president of CC.COM, I'll vote for you! I dont know why they why ask. I ask because I was just looking for good recomendations. Just like the majority of you guys, I climb as well. I know the basics that fit is the most important element of boots, etc, etc, etc. I was just hoping somebody could throw down some good suggestions as to brands or particular boots that I might want to check out, or warn me of some that just suck. The synthetic boots I have now are these really light red La Sportiva's, not sure what model they are off the top of my head.
