sayjay Posted July 26, 2002 Share Posted July 26, 2002 quote: "It involves three pitches of chimneying and offwidth climbing. Take a dozen appropriate nuts..." Appropriate?perhaps they were referring to the climbing partners you should bring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jordop Posted July 26, 2002 Share Posted July 26, 2002 quote: Local climber John Howe has said that up here, "The trees are winning." Funny, I heard Anders Ourom say, "the moss is winning". Trees are fine and are relatively easy to deal with. Moss is an insidious nightmare endemic to PNW; it can creep back in a week of rain and reclaim all your best efforts of cleaning.

wayne Posted July 27, 2002 Share Posted July 27, 2002 Lets go back to that Formidible route. It is not in the book, is it a new route? . Give it up, what is the grade etc?. I did the complete N. Ridge solo and I was not impressed with the rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle_Tricky Posted July 27, 2002 Share Posted July 27, 2002 NW Corner of North Early Winters on Tuesday. Had the spire to ourselves. The 3rd-5th pitches are outstanding. Truly memorable. Fingers, hands, fists, offwidth, liebacking, underclings, stemming, face, etc.--it's got it all. Donated a quart of blood to the local well-fed skeeter population, which was kind enough to accompany us up the route.

Tom Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 I took my wife up into Tull Canyon in the Olympics, where we got up at 3:00 am and watched the meteor shower until dawn. I know, not a real climb, but my wife thought it was! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckwheat Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 On Monday I did Davis-Holland to Lovin' Arms on Upper Town Wall at Index. Supposedly the hottest day of the year so far.. So, we got the super-alpine start: at 1 p.m. We were in the shade after the first pitch. The temps were quite nice. I enjoyed the route very much.

Gary_Yngve Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 Nice sig, Stebbi. Â Though I preferred drinking water from Noel's bladder. The water had the slight flavor of caramel latte. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
