I'm making plans for some alpine climbs this season and trying to find new partners to get out with. I manage to climb regularly, when not getting getting my but kicked at work, but would like to find a couple of people to get out with more regularly. Some goals for the summer Outer Space, the Thin Red Line, south face of Prussic, the Wilson Headwall or Ptarmigan Ridge, Gunsight Peak and a Yosemite b walls trip. Those are mostly Nelson highlights but look like great routes. I'm leading trad in the 5.8 range and train up a little harder; C2; WI3-4; IV. I've taken a couple of medical classes and done the groups thing plus rescue work. I'm fairly safe but lAck insurance. Probably not in manichial trips but totally willing to go out despite any weather. Cheers, Nick

Anyone want to try and take advantage of the California weather forecast? Nick 971.%404.%6492

I'm off work for about a month and looking for trip partners. Ideally ten days in El Potrero Chico; would also be open to Red Rocks or some Canada alpine. I'm leading around 5.9 trad, WI4 and IV. Have some MSAR, club training for when normal judgment fails. Cheers! 971%.404%.6492

Liberty Ridge would be great but most people rule it out over winter because of the longer approach out of Paradise (your only P entrance). The Niqually ice fall might be a cool alternative. Triple Couloirs is committing and exciting; everyone seems to spend a night stuck on top. Mt Stuart has a col/ ice line I'd like to find out more about. Chair Peak is pretty short for a ten hour drive but has easy access. Nelson mentions a mixed line right near by that sounds wild. Send a note when you're getting into the area

Not sure if the roads are open but anyone want to try the big one Tuesday - Wedensday? 971 %404 %#6492

I'd be up for something like that and could probably get someone in at the Mountaineers' indoor ice wall. Cougar Mt is also fun for a pm, weekday mission. Let me know if you have time for after the holiday. Cheers, Nick 971 %404 %6492

Hi, I'll be there climbign the week before and would like to hook up with some folks for the weekend, if I can extend the trip. Probably leading 5.9trad or some A2.... Cheers

I'd like to skin up Rainier over the Christmas break or try for a headwall climb. If the weather's great, maybe run up to Lillooet for a few days. I usually suffer up stuff despite the weather so for a volcano trip, I'm just trying to get the time put together. And would like to spend a few days on somethign. I'm pretty safe (MSAR, WEMT, and clubs stuff), and probably leading IIII (much easier than IV), WI4 and 5.9trad. It would be great to hook up with some people interested in winter climbing. Thanks!

Hi, My house just burned down and I'm in the market for a rental. If anyone know of something, send me a pm! Thanks

I'm interested in Big Four but I think the conditions would have to be great. Backing off a headwall or long snow route sounds scary! In January/ Feb it would be great to try a ridge route in the Stuart group... if snow and weather were good. There ought to be a couple of easy options that take you on and off rock. Your other plans sound awesome. ... Always looking for safe partners for alpine stuff. Cheers

`Git some while it's in...

I might be up for something alpine the weekend of the 28th... If the weather was iffy, maybe Goode, scouting Bear Mountain or something. Cheers

I could do something 11/29, Sat - Sunday.... Planning would even make it easier to resist over indulgence in the Thanksgiving! A headwall might be fun.

I'm interested in trying Liberty Crack the first weekend in Novemember if the weather cooperates. Maybe if the weather wouldn't too. It looks like the face is still pretty dry and it would be nice to get in there before the road closes. I have some extra gear and a little determination; no health insurance though....

Nice work! Good to hear about some exploring up there. Sweet overview photo too.

I have some time off next week and would like to get in a couple of alpine climbs. Especially if this weather holds. Day trips would be okay but would like to try Mt Goode, Early Wint Spire, S Face of Prussic, Liberty Crack or Town Crier again. I have some extra gear if someone's starting out and can lead trad to 'easy' 10a....

I'd like to do some cragging in LV Friday, Saturday. Ideally climbing Outer Space and Pearly Gates Saturday. I could lead to 10a trad and follow a little harder, unless it's toes in. Would also be up for s. faec of Prussic. I have some extra gear if someone's starting out..... (971)404-6492

I'd lead to ~10a and have some extra gear; would be totally interested in doing one of the longer routes. Or Index....

The weather forecast looks great... I'd be up for some 5.9 trad or trying harder climbs and would be totally excited about more sunshine. Monkey Face might be fun too

sweet tr - rawkin trip. are the 5.9s pretty consistent or do nuts fill in for a few cams?

I have the week off and would be into a climb, if not on Rainier, something like the Torment-Forbidden traverse or Gunsight Peak??

Backbone ridge of Dragontail? I'd be in for that anytime over the next three weeks!

Nice TR! Maybe the critter was a pika. The route's probably more dangerous in mating season.

Hi, I'm in need of a partner for the end of the month. I'd be interested in other alpine objectives but this was one I had in the calendar.
