leavenworth, moutaineer creek climbs

[jstreet]

anybody been up to the leavenworth mountaineer creek climbs this season? How were the climbs and how was the stream crossing?

i was up mountaineer creek this afternoon while coming back from Colchuck Lake. there is ice everywhere. don't listen to gapers tell you otherwise. some of it is rotten and other stuff is blue. also, there were a lot of climbs just upstream from the Snow Creek Wall parking area on the right hand side of the road. i don't have the guide handy for names though. i've got a photo of some ice that looks like the cover of How to Ice Climb. i'll post them tomorrow, unless i go climbing. the stream sounded like it would be tough to cross.

Fun climbs, but most are pretty short (from 2000):

 

 

we found a log crossing to get across the creek too.
