crampon_retread Posted November 10, 2003 Posted November 10, 2003 (edited) Greetings Andy, Â Hope you were able to venture into the mountains before the rains began. Looks like poor weather for some time to come, yet--in defiance of the gloomy weather forecasts-- there may be sun breaks in the not-too-distant future. Â I cannot tell from your posting if you are an alpine climber. If so, perhaps you would be interested in doing mixed climbing on peaks (Tatoosh Range) located below Mt. Rainier? (Also, there is a remote chance for a day-trip on Mt. Rainier's Nisqually Glacier practicing crevasse-rescue techniques with a small group of climbers.) Â All of this is uncertain due to weather--November is typically western Washington's wettest time of year. But who knows? Â Are you equipped for and interested in a bit of alpine climbing?

andy_hughes Posted November 11, 2003 Author Posted November 11, 2003 Yep definately interested i have most of my personal kit with me snow shoes crampons etc very interested in practising some rescue techniques . I am also interested in climbing Rainier if the weather improves . Im up for anything , managed to get into olympics for hiking last week but thats it . Have scottish and some limited alps experience and some in NZ . Interested to hear when and where youa re going out . Cheers Andy Quote
crampon_retread Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 Greetings Andy, Â Sounds good. This weather, however, has complicated efforts to get out. Let's watch forecasts to determine when weather and snow conditions come together to allow a safe trip into the mountains. Â Talk with you later. Â Greg Quote
