  1. A friend and I are planning on an ice road trip, including Ouray, Cody, and possibly Hyalite. We're novices so we'll be checking out the easier routes/moderates. Any recommendations or useful info on Cody or Hyalite; are these appropriate places for newbie cruisin'? (Any TR opportunities as well?) I've heard the approaches are brutal and the ice is steep, can anyone back that up? Thanks!

  2. Hey everyone, I'm back in Salt Lake for my winter break and I decided to (finally) start AT skiing..I plan on taking some classes with the local club, but I was wondering what the opportunities in Oregon (or the northwest in general) look like. Really anything besides the resorts...also, the closer to Salem, the better.

     

    Thanks!

  3. I was wondering if there's any good climbing to be had this time of year, it seems like its too wet/snowy for rock, but lacking conditions for anything else. Is Smith Rock good this time of year? I'm just looking for something besides the gym..

     

    Thanks!

  4. Me and a friend are looking to climb Mt. Hood next weekend. I've taken a mountaineering/avy 1 course, and both of us have sport and multi-pitch climbing experience, but have never climbed a 'technical' mountain before. We're planning on the standard south side route, and might check out a few other routes depending on conditions/how we feel. I know the usual season is in spring, but can anyone tell me anything about climbing in late November? Also, besides the south-side, what other routes are good for beginners?

     

    Thanks!
