  1. sorry Edlinger should of been more clear, i was talking about i-b and comments made by Rad a few posts ago. also their really is no easy way to get on top of the NNB to rap bolt it. it would probibly be more work than ground up

  2. To me that wall has always been a symble of fear and the wild cascades since i fist saw it in the winter of 89, makeing my first summit ever[main pk]if you ever wanted to test yourself and have an adventure, this wall would always be here. just a 2hr hike away

  3. yes, at a bulge/overhang near the top of the chimmney i led a fairly fun pitch out left[climbers]and up, then pretty much headed towards the summit[sw]. it was a fun combo other than the chimmney [more of a narrow gully]we climbed right next to each other[no rope]so we wouldnt knock stuff down on each other

  4. since theirs a bailout at the halfway you can get away with one rope but ya gotta bring crampons? for that. also depends how versed you are in down climbing and how much over-all risk your willing to take. other than that, one rope is fine. unless someone gets hurt and it starts raining, then your going to wish to god you had two ropes, but theirs so much pro on that climb you could build anchors anywhere and eat your rack. of course this is the long winded version

  5. Billcoe i did write the last line of that qoute but i also wrote how its just a fairytail and could never happen. ive never said to close any route, anywhere. and this probibly will turn into a 27 page tyrant which no one changes their mind about how/where/when to place bolts. but at least were talking about it. the cacades have had a long history of climbers that for the most part have respected the un written rules of bolts in the wild.
