scott_harpell Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Squamish was a blast! Hit up some classics and some longish routes. -1C didn't stop us this morning, but when the feet and hands went numb, the going got a little tricky. Damn fun never-the-less. Who's with me to go again? I will pull some pics of exasperator off my DV cam later. Quote
chucK Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Right on! Too bad you didn't go to Index, then you coulda titled the thread: "Trip Report: Index open for bidness" Quote
Sabertooth Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Cool. What routes did you do besides Exasperator? Quote
scott_harpell Posted January 22, 2004 Author Posted January 22, 2004 We were gonna do the whole squamish buttress, but after seeing how wet and cold it was on calculus crask, we bailed on the ledges. It was pretty desperate in a few places. Especially on the slabs on the top which completely covvered with running water. I imagine it was all frozen solid when we started up as it was cold that night! Fun as hell though. Quote
RuMR Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Scott...you rock!!!! Screw this winter crapola... I'm heading to smith this weekend...maybe... Quote
Norsky Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Did you see any sheets of ice cut loose on the cheif or apron? I imagine at -1C it would be a major concern Quote
scott_harpell Posted January 22, 2004 Author Posted January 22, 2004 Yeah, there was some shit that sloughed off of the cheif, but nothing huge. If it hit you, you would have to be unlucky as hell and likely wouldn't hae made the drive over. fer real, that was some of he funnest climbing i have done in a while! Jump awn it! Quote
