letsroll Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I am looking into doing a winter climb on three finger, would I need to bring some pitons for the final pitch? Think I would need tools as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Frieh Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Pins: yes (angles and KBs would be wise) Tools: depends on your comfort level... you will most likely want a pair. Watch the avy danger on the approach to the ridge. A good warmup/practice climb for this would be the standard route on Thielsen in winter. Climb safe!

jlag Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Let me know if your looking for a partner for it. How many days are you looking at? weekend siege? I'm looking at giving Thielsen a shot when all the new snow settles. PM me if your interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin_Matlock Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 How in the HELL do you climb that boulder pile on the last pitch of Thielsen in winter?????? Does it all fill in and you get a nice line of snow/ice? Seem like it would just be a bunch of icy boulders to slip and fall on. Almost seems like TFJ would be the warmup for Mt. T.! But... I've only climbed them in the summer, so what the hell do I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
