Alpinfox Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 (edited) Did you say "a mix"? GlassgowKiss' Mix: Alpinfox's Mix: p.s. It was COLD up there yesterday. Toe/hand warmers were in order. Nice ice though. Edited January 28, 2004 by Alpinfox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glassgowkiss Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 on the drive back we saw some stuff re-forming near sailors bar tunnel. i don't know the names and how long they are supposed to last, since the weather in hope calls for 6C in the next few days warm spell destroyed a lot of ice. right rambles - the mixed pitch has a lot less ice. the little WI4 on the left side on rambles right was quite dry and in good shape. carlsberg has less ice then a couple of weeks ago. synchronicity was looking ok from the road. marble: icy-bc first pitch looked like crap, a lot of shitty icycles. no deductable lost a lot of ice. dihedral and deeping wall are pitted hook fests. wait for spring is in, but very, very thin and i don't think you could get even stubbies for pro for the first 40 ft (ice is about 2 ft wide and 2-3 inches thick). i tr'd a line just to the right of deeping wall, out of the left side of the cave (about M6+/7). 4 bolts would be enough to do it on lead. a couple of years ago someone climbed a line straight out of the back of the cave (M8), also on top rope only. so these 2 lines wait for the FA. from the road small creep was still in. cherry ice looked formed, also honeyman falls lookd in, but with a couple of open holes in the middle. it snowed quite a bit on mon and tue. the fresh snow was light powder, but it was sitting on some hard snow, possible with some rain crust in the top, so check avi conduitions before you wonder into some of the drainages. there was a lot more snow on duffy lake road then in lillooet itself.
