skykilo Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Dear CascadeClimbers, Please quit trying to ice climb in the Alpental valley. There is way too much snow. You will surely die in an avalanche. Everything is just a snow slog. Ice climbing must be better elsewhere. Also, you are likely to get a haircut from a skier hucking your little "crux pitches" during a fabulous extremo white-room descent. With kind regards and best intentions, skykilo Better than ice climbing: Photo courtesy of Tony_Bentley. These icicles are fatty now. I saw two "ice climbers" playing at the base of this formation just yesterday. Haircut, haircut, haircut... Thank you for allow skier to post.

skykilo Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 I really didn't mean to motivate long-haired climbers to come in search of haircuts. Should be all right though, as long as you wear a helmet and shoulder pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skykilo Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 A safety break might be a good idea before we try this little stunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weekend_Climberz Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 I have a video camera. Just think, if it doesn't work, you could always submit the video to the Darwin Awards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
