AM: Bear looks like classic, NW machete style alpine. Did you spend a full day each way on approach? Suppose I should just read your tr... Marc: If you are 15 and swing leads on Slesse I will buy you beer (in Canada).

The weather on the 4th will be great, but only on the Canadian side.

Actually the scene was caught on video:

Howdy. I'm going to be free (from work) from the middle of next month through August and into September. I'm looking for partners who will be available to climb on weekdays during this period. Not trying to schedule anything in particular (I usually plan based on the weather) just trying to get in touch with some people who will be available. I usually climb with a pretty select crew, but my new found freedom is going to require more partners, see. Here's what I'm interested in climbing: Slesse, Bear, anything in the Pickets, bigger stuff on Rainier, alpine routes in B.C. and just about anything else that's technical and within driving distance. Would be open to flying somewhere for the right peak/partner. I have a lot of experience leading trad in the 10+ range, have done a lot of glacier travel and a fair amount of aid and alpine ice as well. I'd like to climb with someone who's comparable, or at least well-suited to the route we're after. Let me know what your experience level is, what you're interested in climbing, etc. and we can grab a beer and figure out what's next. Holla.
