rr666 Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 Keep your hopes high, try to believe this site Quote
ryland_moore Posted October 7, 2003 Author Posted October 7, 2003 (edited) Isn't snow a form of precipitation? Every time i've been there in winter, the area is covered in snow. I have been there when it has rained to where you could not climb for the day. Crossing my fingers.... Edited October 7, 2003 by ryland_moore Quote
ClimbingGirl33 Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 Seriously - is it worth going if it rains? I've only been up there once so really have no perspective. Quote

Last time I was there in the spring, it rained hard for about 15 minutes. then the sun came out and we were able to get 4 or 5 more climbs in that day. Definitely worth going. Quote

hikerwa Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 yeah, If the weather looks icky here, it is more than likely nice over there. I have seen this forecast many times and have always been happy in Leavenworth. Heres the skinny: FRIDAY .. A 60 PERCENT CHANCE OF RAIN AND MOUNTAIN SNOW SHOWERS. HIGHS IN THE MID 50S TO LOWER 60S. FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY .. PARTLY CLOUDY. HIGHS AROUND 60. LOWS IN THE 30S. SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY .. MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH A 40 PERCENT CHANCE OF RAIN SHOWERS. HIGHS AROUND 60. LOWS IN THE MID 30S TO LOWER 40S. Hell, if it rains I guess we wash the truck and go into town, Saturday is Karoake night at the Olde Post Office tavern, theres some talented folk on that side of the Mtns. that being said, the weather should be just fine.

mattp Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 A 40% chance of showers is not all that bad of a forecast, but it could be better... Quote
Dru Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 even when its raining on Castle Rox and the upper Icicle you can be climbing in beee-u-tee-ful sunshine at PESHASTIN PINNACLES!!! or just drive the extra hour to Teeton Ribber for a crack fix Quote
Cpt.Caveman Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 Sounds like some good bambi killing weather. Quote
Al_Pine Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 If it rains you can eat the sponsored sausages! Quote
ryland_moore Posted October 7, 2003 Author Posted October 7, 2003 Yes, it also happens to be Octoberfest in Leavenworth this weekend, so you can come and drink in the Bavarian Village while waiting for rock to dry. I am not trying to be a party pooper here Erik, I just checked my reliable source, the NOAA weather out of Seattle, the bible for weather in the North Cascades IMHO, and that is what it said. I usually never trust weather reports anyways and I go. If weather craps out, then I adjust. Quote
catbirdseat Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 I'd say listen to Erik and come to Beckfest no matter what the forecast says. You'll get in some climbing, for sure. Quote

Beck Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 okay, I admit it. When this event got going we checked the six month forcast just to mess up the weekend... sometimes it is wet in the mountains, sometimes it is dry. whatever. I'm packing up boxes of gear for the raffle and give away right now. Quote
Dru Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 i hope you are packing furniture for the chair tossing event! Quote
iain Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 wait, that's next weekend? welp guess I'm out. enjoy the rain! Quote
Smoker Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 what's a little rain? I'll be sendin' on Friday while the rest of you are still pack'n up! Quote
texplorer Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 Are you still considering not going to the Beckfest? Just think, "What would Beckey do?" Quote
