schnitzem Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Anyone know what Chair Peak and the Tooth Ice conditions are like? Would like to get up before work for a quicky.... Quote
jbclimber Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 I was there on Sat, 1 Nov. Icy, cold, and a dusting of snow. Quote
jbclimber Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Sorry, I mis-read your posting. Probably not enough ice to ice climb yet. jbclimber said: I was there on Sat, 1 Nov. Icy, cold, and a dusting of snow. Quote
TimL Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Was up there on Sunday at the Rap Wall. Probably want to give these routes some more snow and freeze/thaw action. It seemed like it was a foot of snow over rocks. Most ice that we saw was extremely thin and I’d have a hard time saying anything looked “in”. With these temps it shouldn’t be long. The rap wall is a cool place. After leading the M7- I couldn’t find chains at the top of the pitch. My guess if there was more/any ice then you could climb ice instead of slab and anchor off a tree. I decided not to slab climb in cramps and tools. The Rap Wall is a fun place, but would have been better with more ice. The folks who put it up did a good job. Quote
