Early winters couloir - couloir between the East faces of North and South Early Winter Spires

I was being cheeky about the trams, but I seriously think huts would be a better solution for popular areas like Boston Basin and Colchuck lake.

Is that a typo, or was the air temperature actually 80 degrees below zero?

I am willing to bet something like the North Face of Mt Maude would be in this weekend.

Do it right; install a tram from the trail head to Colchuck Col. While you are at it install a tram to Boston Basin as well. And a hut.

Tim Ledford???

I have one and agree with Dane's assessment.

Partner found, thanks for looking.

My weekend plans fell through at the last minute. Anyone want to go climbing? The forecast for Mt Hood looks promising http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/hdfForecast?query=Mt+hood&searchType=WEATHER. If interested please call 425-392-2054 or email bighurtbob@hotmail.com by 8:00 AM this morning. If I don't hear from anyone I will just go trail running. Again. I am in Issaquah. Thanks, Dan

Hi Bala, I wish you a full and complete recovery. Glad you were not hurt more seriously. Dan

Thanks for the info. I was thinking of trying NE Couloir this weekend but I don't have the guns for M5 anymore. I'll be doing something easier instead.

I am curious about condtions on the north side of Mt Baker. Does anyone know where the snow line currently is and how much new snow is on the glacier? Is floation necessary to get to Colfax right now? Thanks, Dan

Hi John, My patner Nick and I met you on the way out. Good job on the climb Dan

Thanks for the tips, I will check out the nail puller hammer.

Thanks Jim, That's weird that they were able to clean one, neither my partner nor I or another party were able to clean them. Thanks for letting me know. Dan

If anyone is heading out to do Godzilla or City park and want to do me a favor you could bring a hammer and retrieve my Stoppers on City Park. They are 3 anodized Black Diamond nuts (red, gold, blue). If you want to keep them that is of course your perogative as well. Thanks, Dan

Mt Ruth is dog friendly as well. A corgi and its owners spent the night on top with us.

Hello, Saturday's weather looks showery but reasonable for a trail run. I am going to run the Melakwa Lake - Pratt Lake loop Saturday morning starting ~8:00AM. I have run this loop before and really enjoyed it. I expect to take around 3:30. Would love some company as my regular running partner can't make it. Please email bighurtbob@hotmail.com if interested. Thanks, Dan

Hey Nate, Please let us know how it looks and how far you can drive. Thanks, Dan

I'm interested if the weather is too poor to do anything else. I sent you a PM.

Thanks!

Did you get a look at the NE Couloir on Dragontail? It should be visible from Aasgard Pass.

On Sunday 11/16/2008 I managed to get 3 newer, anodized Black Diamond stoppers stuck on City Park. A few taps with a hammer and nut tool should remove them. If you happen to retrieve them and want to return them, I would be very gratefull. If you want to keep them, well that is fine too. bighurtbob@hotmail.com
