MrDoolittle Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 Dru, I notice your peak is significantly lower, and significantly less technical. Kind of like the thing with feet: Big feet, big meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klenke Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 You pose an interesting question, Dru. Is the plural of bigfoot: bigfeet, bigfoots, bigfoot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swaterfall Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 The photos are killing me. I'm packng my shyte and moving ASAP. There are no glaciers in CO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layton Posted March 14, 2004 Author Share Posted March 14, 2004 there also are very very few technical rock climbs (5.7 and up) over 10 pitches in CO. CO is closer to the Tetons and Winds for that than PNW. Better winter alpine in CO however. But, yes, there are no big ass glaciers in CO. Â Don't move here to slog, you'll get sick of it after a year or two. After a bit, glaciers will be in your way, although they do make any climb 500% better cuz of the added scenery. Â Don't move to the PNW b/c of the waddington range. it's just as big of a deal to get there if you live in seattle or live in new york.

griz Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 After a winter up there you will find those blue sky photos a cruel,cruel joke... but enjoy though! I'm all for one less person in Colorado, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cj001f Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 After a winter up there you will find those blue sky photos a cruel,cruel joke... Sort of like thinking an alpine start will ensure you'll have the route to yourself in RMNP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
