It's always warm, the weather is perfect, there aren't any interesting conditions in the mountains, my tools haven't been used for six months. LET IT END! PLEASE, LET IT END! Â Jeez, Sphinky...You want to swing yer tools and have adventure. Â Did the Price glacier vanish? The N Face of Buckner must be loaded with tourons, too many bugs on the Ice Cliff glacier? Perhaps there's something wrong with your tools? I've got some great sticks with mine this summer already and we're not even into the really prime time yet. If you want, I can check and see if your Cobras work in alpine ice, your welcome to send em my way and I'll report back in a few weeks as to wether they are still good or not. I hope they haven't gone bad.... Cobras are expensive (or so I hear) Â Â You haven't lived here long have you? Whatever, folks who cant handle sunshine belong in Seattle, you'll get your wish soon enough. Maybe we will all remember to thank you. Â Â I'm with you Josh Ya gotta love them short summer skirts!!! I took a look at the ice cliff glacier, and that thing is essentially not climbable now. BIG fucking schrunds and crevasses, discontinuous snow in the upper couloir, etc, etc. The Price is a ski, as is Buckner. Besides, everybody knows that ice climbing when it isn't cold and snowing isn't ice climbing. Â Seriously, I want to get on some water ice. And water ice is hard to find in August. Â I don't have cobras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphinx Posted September 8, 2003 Author Share Posted September 8, 2003 It's overcast and cooler now in Seattle. It's better, but we could still use some colder, wetter weather. BRING ON THE WINTER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dru Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 Why whine about winter. You guys suck.  FALL IS COMING!!! The trees are turning colours already.  You know what dat means  SLABTEMBER ROCKTOBER  Rock climbing time! Alpine peaks with red and yellow meadows, warm days, cold nights, golden larches, no crowds and no bugs.  Fall alpine ice and seracing  Cragging in the Valleys with the smell of woodsmoke, fallen leaves carpeting the ground, and snaffles hurrying past to bury a few last nuts  Beer drinking and climbing parties with friends despite the best efforts of Beck  FALL IS THE BESTEST TIME OF YEAR!!!!! DONT BE WISHIN FOR WINTER JUST YET THANKS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I gotta agree, but then again experience shows that every season has at least one day that moves me to declare, "This, THIS is my favorite season." But Dru, every word you said about fall is true, and I too am looking forward to it. The air, the light, things are already feeling different.

I think summer is my least favorite time of the year, though it really isn't all that bad. I just like change, and lots of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
