Mike_Palmer Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 A big thanks to all the participants on Saturday's Ice Fest here at Cascade Crags, and to the sponsors: Black Diamond, Arc'Teryx, Montrail, Grivel,and Petzl/Charlet Moser. The event was a success in that most people used the leashless tools and nobody, including the spectators, got bloody. That is remarkable considering all the sharp pointy things in a small area. Congratulations and thanks to Roger Strong on his help with all participants and on his spanking everyone on the expert route. Congrats to Todd for winning the Expert division, and for Jake on flashing the Novice. Some cool prizes were handed out and then we all got sweaty palms watching Roger's slide show. Everyone was surprised by a visit by Will Gadd. He hung out for a couple of hours with us and then pre-ran the routes. He spent a few minutes thinking out a couple of moves on the Expert route, which didn't bode well for the rest of us. He had a great time and want's to come back next year. Thanks again to everyone and have a safe season, Mike Quote
Mike_Palmer Posted November 10, 2004 Author Posted November 10, 2004 That's Sue, one of our regulars here at the Crags. This was her first time on the wall. She is a good rock climber and did pretty well on the Novice mixed route. Quote
lancegranite Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 Sue let me climb with her before she was a rock star... Quote
Snafflehunter Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 CBS, put it back in your pants! Sorry, Klenke .. I couldn't resist. Quote
tomtom Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 You assumed CBS was talking about the girl? Quote
Sue Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Hey, is "Lancegranite" Lance that formally worked at Cascade Crags? Quote
Sue Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 BTW, Merridy flew through the novice route and styled nicely on the advanced route! Great job Merridy, after climbing hard all day in the gym just prior to the comp! Mike-When will you post some other photos at the Cascade Crags website? Quote
John Frieh Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Bump. Does anyone know if Cascade Crags is holding a dry ice fest this year? I didn't see anything on their website... Quote
dbb Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Hope so, they seem to have them around the end of oct/early nov. I doubt I'll come close to the money this year, y'all are too strong Quote
John Frieh Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 Just start the coffee and cigs diet man! You don't have to be strong if you don't have any mass to pull! Quote
John Frieh Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I got an email from Mike Palmer... they are currently trying to decide if we are going to have it this year. I would encourage everyone who would like the opportunity to try out new tools from various companies in addition to watching and/or entering a drytool comp shoot Mike an email at info@cascadecrags.com and let him know you'd be stoked if cascade crags came through!
