Climb: Alpental Valley-Alpental I

 

Date of Climb: 12/21/2005

 

Trip Report:

Wife and I headed out late this morning for a little climbing at Alpental. Nice how the rain would come and go every 20 minutes or so. A little ice, snow and rain mix...talk about good fun. The ice on Alpental I was still in pretty decent shape but was starting to soften up on the surface with all the rain. We only did one 3/4 pitch with about 3 screws (13cm), set up an anchor and did a few top rope climbs. Decided to leave once the gloves were soaked through and the toes started to get cold. All in all not bad climbing. Hopefully the rain will stop soon and maybe turn into snow?!

The approach wasn't too bad. Just a 1/4in rain crust that we kept breaking through.
