Dry Ice Festival Wrap Up

Recommended Posts

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,

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?

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!
