Uncle_Tricky Posted May 11, 2003 Posted May 11, 2003 Anyone climbed there? It's at 4,600 feet, but E. of the crest near Dufur. Probably snow-free by now? Quote
bunglehead Posted May 12, 2003 Posted May 12, 2003 I attempted to hike Tidbits mountain this weekend in the McKenzie river/Blue River area, and the snow level was around 4500 feet, and there was lots of it. Bulo is further east in the rain shadow, so it might be dry. I was going to try to go there next week. If I go I'll submit a report. Quote
Ursa_Eagle Posted May 12, 2003 Posted May 12, 2003 I spent some time SE of Bend this past weekend, and we were up above 5000 ft for lots of the trip. It looked like there was snow high on Paulina Peak, but that was about it. There was no snow on the east side of Santiam, but as soon as we passed over it to the west side, there was snow on the hills. Quote
wayne Posted May 13, 2003 Posted May 13, 2003 I have climbed there. Olson wrote a small guide to the place. It is very sweet with lots of potential. almost all face climbing Quote
nonanon Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 You wouldn't believe the place now, Wayne. Maybe forty bolted routes or so... unless you're thinking about the Boy Scouts crag? Â On topic 'tho, I'll bet it goes. There shouldn't be much more than a short walk thru snow (if that) up there this coming weekend. Quote
Uncle_Tricky Posted May 16, 2003 Author Posted May 16, 2003 Spent a day at Bulo, a day at Horsethief and a day at Frenchman's this week. A patch of snow blocked the road about 1/4 mile before the crag, but the rock was dry and warm. Some fun bolted climbs and a couple nice cracks. And of course we had it to ourselves. Horsethief was bloody windy. Saw several rattlers and got maybe 20 ticks between two people and two dogs. My hound ate Death Camas and spent the next 24 hours puking wildly. The Coulee was sunny and warm. Only one other party on Sunshine Wall. Saw the Goran memorial. Snowing hard from Cle Elum on over the pass coming back over last night! Quote
Uncle_Tricky Posted May 26, 2003 Author Posted May 26, 2003 Posted a couple of Bulo pics in the gallery. Quote
bunglehead Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Okay, headed there this weekend. Somebody give me directions. I have a guidebook and bouldering guide. Quote
markd Posted October 22, 2003 Posted October 22, 2003 The crag is in the Portland bouldering guide if your looking for directions. Quote
