Anyone want to head up to the E side of Cutthroat tomorrow? Scope it on Sunday and climb on Monday... Mark

Jedi, Do you mean the descent off of Liberty CAP? If so, from the Cap head E along a ridge then S down to the saddle toward the main crater (all gentle slopes). From the saddle traverse SE (left) until you can descend the Emmons Glacier route. Hopefully you won't have to gain any extra altitude to avoid cracks. In a whiteout it would be a lonely, desolate place and not much fun! You might want to descend Liberty Ridge if it's too crappy. Enjoy!

Repeated bad luck with Dave Page (and his elves), and very good results from Valley Cobbler. $.01

Looking for partner(s) for Synchrotron and/or?? My car runs and has studded tires and lots of room! Cheers, Mark 253-631-7794 (Kent)

Here are a couple of shameless plugs: The 2 best air taxi services up there are McKinley Air-- http://www.alaska.net/~mckair/ and TAT-- http://www.gorp.com/flytat/ Keli and LeAnne will do right by you, and Paul will fly you anywhere that's humanly possible. Mark

Hey, excellent! I'll be at the upper Alpental lot at 6:30 or so. I've got a small rack and a 60m half rope. If we don't hook up, I'll just get on something anyway so don't worry about making it if you can't. Mark

Anybody want to go give the E face of the Tooth a whack tomorrow (Sun Dec. 10)? My partner has to work and bailed on me!! Mark
