AlpineMonkey Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 (edited) Today my girlfriend, suckbm, and I decided to find some ice. The approach was a five minute uphill walk wich left me gasping for air, seriously. The crux was getting through a barb wire fence while suckbm tried to grop me. We found some undocumented ice to the right of the "Beer" routes. We first climbed the middle route, which we named "Pink Panty Dropper," 35 feet tall, WI 3. Then the route to the right, which we named "Gummy Bear Martini." 25 feet tall, WI 3. We were going to climb the far left one as well, but I walked to the base and the top out was only 6 feet above my head. Perhaps Capallini would find it a significantly tall climb. The FA is up for grabs. We then trecked over to the far left of the Beer routes and found a climb wich to our knowledge had not been climbed. We followed foot prints to the base of the climb and topped out to some fresh webbing. It was an excellent climb though. I really wanted to do Bavarian Dark, but it was to chandeliered for me. Lastly, we climbed Sody Pop which was in great condition, Rainier Light was not in, it could be climbed but you would just bash your picks up. My little darling.

AlpineMonkey Posted February 4, 2007 Author Share Posted February 4, 2007 You and Scott should go there. 1 hour and 15 min drive out of the burg. You can practically drive to the base of the climb, 5 - 10 minute approaches. Good and short, moderate to easy routes for you two to practice on. It would be a good place for a first lead.

catbirdseat Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token, And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!' This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!' Merely this and nothing more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlpineMonkey Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 If know one comes forward with the FA of that far left route it should be named "The Raven" after that poem... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
