MTNEER Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Hi All, Yes Olympic Rock. Now, once all the jokes about portable hand holds and such die down, there is news. There is a new Climbers Guide to the Olympic Mountains due out in April. It will have, for the first time, sections covering Alpine Rock as well as Crags and Sport routes. There is some nice stuff here. For instance, in the Alpine Rock section is the SE Ridge of Mt. Washington. This is a many pitch, 10 hour route. There are several cragging area you have never heard of, that have dozens of obvious but unclimbed lines. Get the guide when it comes out and have some fun. After you have tried an area or added a route, go to olympicmountainrescue.org and provide feedback or route information. There is bouldering to be had for those of you hooked on that that particular addiction. Quote
Off_White Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Sounds great, I'm looking forward to it. SE Ridge on Washington is a wonderful daytrip, and highly recommended. Quote
wayne Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 I dont think you need to advertise much for that book . It is cool to see the pride in the effort though. It will fly off the shelves when it arrives. I am so glad to hear of its improved quality. Congradulations in advance! Quote
