David Trippett Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 (edited) Climb: Lillooet-Marble Canyon, Rambles Right Date of Climb: 12/17/2005 Trip Report: Scott (earthly) and myself headed up to Lillooet over the weekend for some ice. Lots to be seen everywhere on the drive in and out on 99. We spent the first day at Marble Canyon climbing some routes on the face to the left of the corner of Dweeping wall. The three routes we did were thin, delicate affairs, the center one just a smear with some cool mixed moves at the beginning off an improbable slot for the pick to gain a thin curtain(TR'd). Another group climbing there said that the third pitch of Icy BC is in. On sunday after a leisurely morning we went to the Rambles and climbed the corner at Rambles right. There is a fat thread at the top now for the next party. We only brought the single 8mmx60 to play with, so the thread is not quite at the top.....so the next party gets a sport clip. The routes on the left wall near the corner are still dripping and pretty wet, but forming up well. The walk down in the dark was made interesting by all the large surface hoar covering everything and sparkling in the light of our lamps. It will make for a nice sliding layer when the next dump comes... Gear Notes: single 8mm rope screws draws dogs(2) Approach Notes: Little snow to speak of and bare ground visible under the bigger trees. Edited December 20, 2005 by avitripp Quote
