Ade Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Yeah, until you climb it you can't beat us with it. When you are done climbing it then let us know. We might invite you out hear to put all that practice to good use in the mountains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russki82 Posted October 25, 2002 Author Share Posted October 25, 2002 well, you guys got me there...i admit that the ice is just too thin right now to climb. On the plus side, it looks like the cold weather should last through next week. If that happens, we could see some climbable ice next weekend, in which case i'm gonna try to head up north and get on the ice...i'll definitely post some pics if i do. happy climbing...

Navin_Johnson Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Harrison Lake, Roman Nose from Harrison Lake. Can't place the third shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offwidthclimber Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 third one is beehive dome, across the pack river from the harrison lake trail head. looks like some really fun multipitch slab stuff on bomber granite. needless to say i plan on spending a lot of time up there next summer. are you familiar with technical routes in the idaho selkirks?

Navin_Johnson Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 Mr off. Cut my mtn teeth up there in the early 70's. Don't know much about technical routes in the Id Selkirks other than Fred said something like Chimney Rock is so narrow it shakes. Think many of the north and northeast faces have decent granite slabs - often quite steep too. Bomber proof granite is right. I crab-walked down (belly up) slabs from Pk 7171 above Harrison Lake desceding to Little Harrison. The best friction. Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coondog Posted October 27, 2002 Share Posted October 27, 2002 Offwidth- After growing up in Sandpoint these shots are a gigantic flashback..... How's the ice-climbing in the Selkirks??? Got to imagine there's a fair bit o' the goodness over there... maybe not yet, but sooooon. --Cd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offwidthclimber Posted October 27, 2002 Share Posted October 27, 2002 i don't ice climb, so i'm not sure about ice in the selkirks. don't think i've ever heard anything about north idaho ice, but then again, that doesn't mean anything.
