Thats what I thought too! He was bitching about his skies as we passed him on our way out as well.
I thought the road up in the morning was great, the way out SUCKED!
Shit, I didn't know there was such a hot market for skittles. I think when I go home for spring break, I'll make a stop by costco, buy a huge thing of skittles and put about 20 in each plastic baggy and go for a stroll around the local jr highs.
i picked up the black diamond reactors, big upgrade on vertical ice over my last tools (petzl atzars.) I thought they were great on ice from wi2-wi5. I didn't do any mix, but the guy i bought them from said he climbed m7/8 with them.
While you guys were bickering about naming routes, I went out and climbed some.
I'm hella stylish.
Apparently the falls is not in good climbing shape right now.
For what its worth, it was dumping snow this morning. There were a total of five of us that turned back. There was 12+" inches of fresh snow at the base of the mountain and it wasn't letting up. Meh, nothing like a 9 mile hike at 3 in the morning.
