Don_Serl Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Text Forecast from Environment Canada Lillooet: Issued 11.00 AM PST Monday 6 December 2004 Today .. Periods of light snow. High zero. Tonight .. Periods of snow. Amount 2 to 5 cm. Low minus 4. Tuesday .. Periods of light snow changing to periods of rain mixed with light wet snow late in the day. High plus 3. Wednesday .. Rain showers or flurries. Low minus 1. High plus 3. Thursday .. Showers or flurries. Low zero. High 4. Friday .. Periods of rain or snow. Low zero. High 4.  Duffey, Bridge, and Marble will be colder (by 2ºC to 5ºC), but I bet maybe not quite 'in' yet.... [on the bright side, my first day out last year was the New Years weekend, and it went on to be my most active local season EVER!]  cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glassgowkiss Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 i was climbing in marble last week of november. the good side is that with all the rain there should be plenty of water to form the routes when (?????) it gets cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken4ord Posted December 6, 2004 Author Share Posted December 6, 2004 I wouldn't be so bummed out if I wasn't leaving in January, cause I know that get out eventually. Hopefully it stays cold through this weekend too so that I can get out the following weekend, might be my last chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 you could probably climb isodorth and belmore right now if there wasn't such high avvy risk. Â i saw some pictures from a friend who went snowshoeing in the chilliwack valley this weekend, some well-known unclimbed ice located at 700m elevation was half frozen up so i expect that if you go higher there might be some goodies in.

Don_Serl Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 What sets Four Pines aside from the rest? Â a cpl bucks cheaper (in the "old" wing). more places in the room to hang wet gear. 2 blocks closer to the pub in the Reynolds. Â BUT, the rooms are bigger in Mile O, so getting together is easier. and cuz more climbers stay there, there's more chance of that happening. and fun is always good. [oh, and Mile O has a laundromat; 4 Pines does not...] Â 6 of one, half dozen the other... Â cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salbrecher Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 (edited) Climbed Wait For Spring and Deeping Wall in Marble Canyon on Saterday and sunday. The climbs were thin but pretty dry on Saterday and on Sunday Deeping Wall was melting fast. Dales Route left of WFS had ice all the way to the ground but was thin. No pitches of IcyBC touch the ground. Crown lake was cruxy but walkable. Edited December 7, 2004 by salbrecher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dru Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 the last time i was in lillooet 2-3 weeks ago it looked like they changed the name of Mugs and Jugs to something new - Good Neighbours or Good Times or something. Hopefully they will have a kitchen again cause the Reynolds only has Molsons on tap and the smell of smoke is horrible. Foods pretty good at the Reynolds but with no hockey to watch it is kinda slow in there once you've eaten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassgowkiss Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 ps with -12C in Clinton and -11C on the top of 7th heaven i don't see why people wouldn't try to climb in marble and on husume. but if you head to little wet don't forget your vecro gloves (not for dry tooling) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
