  1. Rob, didn't make my lab that afternoon, my partner moved a lot slower than we planned because of his diabetes. Its all good though, made up lab yesterday. Escalade, not sure if you'll see this before you climb it, the snow above the couloir was great after the first like 50-100 ft where you are traversing below the rocks.
  2. waterproof supports weight well Good crampon and ice tool holders durability thats just stuff off the top of my head. And yeah, I would buy from local companies if their gear is as solid as any other competitors.
  3. While this isn't nearly as exciting as climbing cool routes on dragontail, I just thought I'd add some pictures from this morning's adventure. Also, path is super packed from road to lake. Took me just under 4 hours to reach the colchuck/dragontail side of the lake. Stuart in early morning sun Early morning glow... Finishing the route. Took around 12ish hours car to car. If anyone wants photos from surrounding peaks regarding conditions, I probably got'em because I killed time by taking pictures while waiting for my friend.

    First Ice

    I wish I had a cool dad.
  5. This may be a dumb question...what about hubba hubba? I've looked at it three days this week on my way in/out of colchuck lake and it still looks pretty good - from the road at least. What if someone was to get on it before the sun hit it?
  6. My ass 30 more minutes and you're in vantage. Does this guy own a helicopter or something?
  7. Sure, if you give me a piggy back ride on the way down. But really, ok..
  8. Avalanche conditions are LOW according to NWAC. Me and some other people broke trail up to colchuck lake this weekend. I want to get back there and climb the NBC tomorrow night/thursday morning. HIT ME UP. 425 246 5500 Kevin
  9. I think we saw you crossing the lake as we were leaving. There was another group we broke trail with on saturday, are they on here?
  10. anyone used the integral designs salathe bivy?
  11. Since posting it I concluded it was A because its in a solution of strong acid, H3O. And since the O has a partial negative and the h30 is + it would easily give up a proton, in this case H to make the primary alcohol.
  12. Dont bring ice gear... When I was there last weekend rock climbing, I was climbing in just a flannel and about 80% of ice was gone.
  13. I wonder what the shipping charges are.
  14. I pretty much just skeeted my pants. Anyway, the ice today was buttah. No need for a second swing nor second kick. It was awesome.
  15. wtf...
  16. So I have this take home quiz...and this one problem I'm not quite sure of. I think the answer is a, but who knows. Originally I thought it was E, however she changed the answers and added an extra carbon to that answer. Any help?
  17. Instead of ice climbing, want to climb mountains?
  18. I want to climb mountains. Saturday, sunday or monday. or all three.
  19. How busy do you think smith will be this weekend? I was thinking of heading down there as well...
  20. The national weather service: Today: Partly sunny, with a high near 47. West southwest wind around 10 mph. See you all there.
  21. Guess I'll resort the rock climbing. I can only climb umptanum so many times in one week.
  22. Anyone want to climb somewhere this weekend?
  23. Well now that winter training is postponed, want to go to chinook pass? Unless stuff at banks lake is still in...which i doubt because of the heat wave we've been having.
  24. How much do you think the warm weather will affect the ice out there? Both bozeman and cody are suppose to be in the upper 30s to lowers 40s all next weekk.
  25. This sucks. Its suppose to be in the 40s pretty much everywhere thats not a mountain pass for the next 10 days.
