Current Exit 38 Conditions - Deception Crags

[BreezyD]

Anyone been up there yesterday or today and could tell me whether or not it would be worth it to run up there tonight if the rain stays away?

 

Things were looking pretty wet crossing the Iron Horse Trail Wednesday on our way to Lake Annette so I wanted to run it by y'all.

 

Thanks!

If you like Nevermind Wall, anytime is a good time. But if you are talking Deception Crags, my guess is it will be wet by evening (50% chance).

It was dry last night. It's raining outside (at UW) right now.

 

btw - some of the chains up there are looking sketchily thin!

Last year I told Garth about thin metal on cold shuts on Block Head. He went and replaced them with chain. After one season, they were worn half-way through. That's a lot of lowering!

WHY ARE PEOPLE LOWERING OFF THE CHAINS? Don't sport climbers know how to rappel?
