freeclimb9 Posted February 12, 2003 Posted February 12, 2003 Where is Canal Flats and Gilbralter Wall? Quote
JoshK Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 iceguy, you were with loren right? Can either of you tell me what the climb in that pic is? It looks great! I'm heading there this afternoon for 4 days of climbing in Hyalite. Quote
CascadeClimber Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 That's "Mummy 2" Your going to need: 1. A 4x4 with chains all around and high-clearance or 2. A snowmobile or 3. Lots of people for pushing, and digging or 3. To be ready for long approaches. The ice is FAT and BLUE and pretty plastic later in the day. Hyalite rocks. The Sceptre was huge, but I chickened out. It's right next to Mummy 2. Dribbles is great, too. Go get it. Temps were moderate for us. Take pics for those of us who are trapped in Washington. -Loren Quote
JoshK Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 Yup, we have #1 on your list. Hopefully it works for us. Thanks for the info...the ice does in fact look awesome. Man, I'm pumped...I'm counting down the minutes to leave this hellish place (work.) Quote
CascadeClimber Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 I'm jealous, even though I was just there! If you hit Perkins for a pre-dawn breakfast, tell Laura the waitress that Loren, Brett, and Eric say 'hi'. Climb safe- Loren Quote
JoshK Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 In fact, Dave (skisports), who I am meeting there told me he has coupons for perkins, so I bet it's pretty likely we'll be eating there. I'll say hi to Laura. Thanks again to all y'all for the beta. We'll climb safe and have fun. Just wish us luck not getting the truck stuck. Quote
Skisports Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 I think Mummy 2 is calling Us same with Laura Quote
JoshK Posted February 15, 2003 Posted February 15, 2003 Seattle to Missoula...6 hours...ICE ICE ICE Quote
