jonthomp Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 Looking for people to ski/ride from as far up Little T as weather, conditions, and motivation allow. Early TH start, hike to snow, hike/skin frypan and whitman, maybe summit, and rip it down. Any takers? Am also open to other outings people may want to do. Quote
Dave_Schuldt Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 Sounds cool. Hopefuly the wether will be good. Quote

jonthomp Posted June 2, 2004 Author Posted June 2, 2004 if you like G W Bush  Even Bush supporters are welcome to join in for some sloggin' and turnin'. You in, Wally? BTW, who's ass is Bush whoopin'? Would that be the American public and it's future generations? Quote
Skinveen Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 I'm striking out on finding anyone for Friday turns.....if no luck by tomorrow morning I'll rearrange Saturday and you can count me in. Have you been up there before? Any steeps? Quote
jonthomp Posted June 2, 2004 Author Posted June 2, 2004 (edited) Frypan is pretty flat. The Whitman (which leads to Little T's summit) is fairly steep. You can check out this link and read two TR's about it:  http://cascadeclassics.org/MountRainier/MountRainier.htm  then scroll down to Little Tahoma Edited June 2, 2004 by jonthomp Quote
jonthomp Posted June 2, 2004 Author Posted June 2, 2004 The game plan as it stands so far is-- leave Seattle at 5 Am to hit the TH around 7 then hike to the snow, hike/skin from there, and continue until reach the summit, a high point to be determined by weather, conditions, motivation, and time, or until some other appealing looking line attracts out attention. Â Several people have said they are planning on going so PM me or post here and we'll sort out a definite game plan, carpooling, etc. Quote

Dave_Schuldt Posted June 3, 2004 Posted June 3, 2004 Looks like were hosed again this weekend..... Quote
jonthomp Posted June 3, 2004 Author Posted June 3, 2004 Perhaps. I'm hoping that early start gets in just ahead of the thickening clouds, then back down before it all turns to hell. Quote
Skinveen Posted June 3, 2004 Posted June 3, 2004 Not to try to steal bodies from jonthomp's thread, but if anyone is afraid of a little rain join me tomorrow on the same adventure. I'm leaving the TH as early as I can....5:00'ish Quote
jonthomp Posted June 3, 2004 Author Posted June 3, 2004 Ain't no biggie. Wish I could go tomorrow in the sun. Enjoy Quote
fleblebleb Posted June 3, 2004 Posted June 3, 2004 Ya sorry about the weather crapping out before Sat. I can't go although I'd really like to, I'm nursing a nasty bruise. Quote
