todd Posted February 5, 2002 Posted February 5, 2002 sorry to bore you nw guys with colorado-related questions, but it seems like a lot of you have lived/climbed here. has anyone ever climbed blitzen ridge on mt. ypsilon in the winter? if so, how did you descend, since the normal summer descent off the backside to the second car isnt an option? thanks, makin' plans for the weekend.

JayB Posted February 5, 2002 Posted February 5, 2002 Todd: Apologies if this isn't useful - If you haven't already done so, you may want to post your query on rec.climbing, as there's a fairly large contingent of folks from Boulder/Ft. Collins who post there and usually have a wealth of beta to share on routes in the park. My partner posts there from time to time and usually gets no less than 10 folks who chime in with good info. Sadly enough, one of those folks was Mike Sofranko... Quote
todd Posted February 6, 2002 Author Posted February 6, 2002 thanks jayb, never heard of that one. ill give it a shot. Quote
todd Posted February 6, 2002 Author Posted February 6, 2002 i think ill probably stick with this site. they dont have any of the funny emoticons on that site. but again, thanks for the suggestion. Quote
chucK Posted February 6, 2002 Posted February 6, 2002 Todd, You can do website-based reading and posting to rec.climbing through Google. Click this link http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&group=rec.climbing The post-response is delayed (so no instant gratification like on this site) when using this website instead of a newsreader. Using this website though you can search for a topic, so you could search for past beta on your topic of interest. Chuck Quote
