  1. Looks like I will be able to get out these days. I am up for anything. Once again let me know, I have down the West Face and Northwest corner up at washington pass a couple of times,if anyone wants to do those, I know the route and don't mind doing it again. Pm me. Thanks

  2. Two weeks before that, I had a guy at Muir approach me at midnight and ask if he could join my rope team or have me cut off 10' of my rope for $12. He had on trail runners. Wtf!? Where do these people come from.

     

    What was he planning to do with 10' of rope????? Wtf!? is right!

     

    hang himself?

     

    TOO FUNNY

  3. Hmm, right on man, I wanna solo Rainier so badly, I did the easton route solo in July and it was great, never felt lie that. Do rangers have a age requirement for soloing? Dont think they would be so happy to give me (18) a go for it. I was thinking if I were to do all the other volcanoes first, then apply for the permit I would have higher chances to get it. Guy, check out the Easton on Baker, its straight forward, however I did not pass anyone up or down from the summitt, it was slim, and this was right after july 4. So the DC route is closed now you say? Its not really closed or is it just not really climbable? I wanna try it in early november.

  4. If anyone wants to climb Baker Thursday and Friday then let me know. This is short notice but I ll be checking pm all the time, leave a number and I ll call you. Its easier for me to just call. We could also try it in 24 hours, if youd like.If we do it in Two days, then the plan could be to just leave around 9 from Meadow, then climb as far up as we can go till dark, short summit in the morning, and come down that day. I ll be waiting to hear back! Otherwise I will probably solo again, and I dont wanna make that a habit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. Hey man, I just love to climb, no matter the grade. Would you be up for a 5.9 route? I ll have to look at a guide book and see what the routes you mentioned are like. There is a 5.9 on one of the spires,( I forget) that is a hike up from the Blue lake trail. Other wise, maybe the beckey route is fine, I have never been on it personally, or been too it.

  6. If got 24 mammut slings, and 10 wild county. Its my observation that the mammuts hold up much better. Not sure why, but they definately fussed less. I know this doesnt address your question very well!

  7. Rob, the exact thing has happened to my pack. Basically all the padding is now in the front, and not on your shoulders. Its impossible now to get a comfortable fit and I cant get the padding to adjust to the right possition. So I was going to get pictures of it and send them to cilogear, hopefully they will do something about it, and I believe they will. I tool the stay out as well and find it more comfortable. No problems with the fabric here.

  8. Looking for climbers that are available during the week, since those are my promising days off. Let me know, I would be up for Rainier forsure, and really any other cascade peaks. Possibly ride up to squamish for 4-5 days, we can split gas.
