my firstlight tent body didn't end up in the truck bed somehow while in squamish. Last camped off the spit. Please get in touch if you found it. thanks, Braden

So sad. Sounds like he was a great kid. http://www.dailyrecordnews.com/free/news/loved-ones-remember-cwu-student-who-died/article_131de1ea-cc49-11e1-935a-001a4bcf887a.html

sounds like a great idea, Tyson. See you on Mon.

awesome idea! Monday @ 7, Elizabeth Station works for me.

Want to climb in Squamish or alpine. Willing to rope gun or be rope gunned. Psyched for linkups / big days with the extended daylight but would be happy single pitch cragging too. Also psyched for rock or ice objectives in the mountains. Also, I don't have a car so I'd need picked up in Bellingham. My car just died :C

spend the $100 or so and buy a silnylon tarp like the betalite or megalite (i'd vote for the megalite for 3 person versatility. Your knees will be happier on the down at least which has some dollar value. Also, silnylon holds up great in my experience so long as you don't let your anchors (rocks, limbs) come in contact with the fabric... in fact, they have surprised me with their durability and stormworthyness - hard to imagine a blue tarp would perform near as well in that department.

rime tunnling isn't something i'm particularly psyched on becoming familiar with. nice work and thanks for the TR.

are the picks T rated by any chance? pics?

I thought you were probably being overly dramatic with the opening description... after looking at the pics, that's definitely not the case. Holy shit dude.. hats off.

... and I thought it was gonna be too warm... proved me wrong

lol hope you're havin a productive and safe ice climbing trip, lee! get strong so you can rope gun me up some crazy shit!

haha knew i'd catch some response like this. It's fair game, so it's yours if you got it without being dammed to climbing hell. Having that said, I'd appreciate it back. Here's a compromise - let's go climbing some time and I'll buy the gas... AND a beer?... and burger? no sexual favors though, sorry (in case you were trying to be discrete .

Trip: Snoqualmie - NY Gully, again Date: 2/11/2012 Trip Report: NYG is in great, so get after it! There's enough sticky ice/snice to cover up much of the mixed climbing i've read about (my first time on the peak). Looks like there's a lot of ice on that peak right now... Also, My belay parka (green, stuffed in it's pocket pouch) came unclipped while I was climbing the first dihedral pitch (the 'money' pitch ). Couldn't find it at the base of the route.. might be on a ledge somewhere. If you find it, please let me buy you a beer or something to have it back! This was a really fun climb, close to the road and it deserves the extra attention it gets on cc.com. Here's some more pics for ya: Gear Notes: Brought green C3- #3 Camalot plus orange, red, black metolius, a stubby, and several pins (Knifeblades and LA's), med-sm nuts, a dozen slings and a couple double length, twin ropes. A less beefy rack would have been fine in these conditions IMO. Approach Notes: No floatation required... a little soft coming down though.
