Dru Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Bad forecast kept almost everyone away. It was pretty damp. We snuck in 4 routes before the rain started though. I got bit by a mosquito, well actually about 5 or 10 of them over the course of 4 hours. The moss seems to really be liking this spring. Green slimes and carpets are spreading everywhere. Do your part and bringa nut tool and wirebrush and "touch up" every route you climb. Quote
Bill_Simpkins Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 I was there on Saturday. Climbed IN the rain. Did some wet easy thing on Burgers and Wet Fries, then the 5.7 just right of Zombie roof. That was pretty dry. We wanted to aid Zombie roof but the water dripping off the lip looked miserable. We drove to Mt. Erie after. Quote
Dru Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 Bill It was way better on Sunday, not great, but better than that! Most of the slabs were dry... climbed in the Twisted/Ali Booto area first then wandered off to Pink Kliff. Quote
bigwalling Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Bill... zombie roof has some cool aid by andrew... thin seams... YUM! Quote
specialed Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 What are those funny looking stirrup things your standing in? Quote
EWolfe Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 I drove up Friday Night, into the rain. It was nice all the way to Squamish. Man. I get rained out of Squamish sooo much. It seems inversely proportional to how close I live: The closer I move, the more I get rained out. Turned around and went to the eastside: lathering sunblock and picking ticks! Quote
jmace Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 then the 5.7 just right of Zombie roof. That was pretty dry. Old Age ? I climbed it last week then did sparkys, best damn thing I have done in that area, I though it was labelled as 5.9? Did you see that huge nest on top of the chimney you climb through. Quote
Dru Posted March 7, 2005 Author Posted March 7, 2005 Old Age is super fun, I have done that route about 5 times now. Maybe Bill was thinking of Laughing Crack, 5.7 left of Zombie Roof? Quote
Bill_Simpkins Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 Maybe it was the 5.9. It was right of Zombie Roof. Went up a corner past the sawed off tree (good carving potential) up to the ledge and beyond. Is that 5.9? Felt like 5.7. Didn't have guide book with us. Quote
jmace Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 yep sawed off tree, well theres probably not many moves of 5.9, maybe near the top? Quote
