kiimsent Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 When I climb non of the climbers want to stop and take piks and when I take pictures non of the photographers want to climb. I hope this forum can help.When I climb to take piks it will usually involve 1-2 days more time than typical to climb the same route.Example: Mt Hood N side sunshine route, usually a 1 day affair. Start in the dark and finish in mid afternoon at cloud cap.To take piks of sunrise and sunset and climbing I would have to high camp on shoulder above Coe glacier 10,500'- summit and take piks going up and coming down and get sunsets from that day and sunrise the next morning and then pack up tripod and gear and head down. This is an example of course but is anyone else interested in taking the extra time to do both. Quote
joblo7 Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 interested to spend 2-3 days on hood this weekend or soon . sounds cool.pm please Quote
Kitergal Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 yeah..I prefer to climb slower than the rest anyways! I actually enjoy the time on the mt., checking out the view, etc. (As long as we're all stopping in safe places and not at risk for rock fall, avies, etc.). Yeah..I'm in! PM me! Quote
kiimsent Posted June 8, 2007 Author Posted June 8, 2007 (edited) I only climb on weekdays but if you are interested we can start to schedule a climb. Probably the 1st one would be North side of Hood next week if there is a clearing of weather for at least 3 days.call me at 503-888-2777 Edited June 8, 2007 by kiimsent Quote
Kitergal Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 ok...that won't work. I assumed you meant weekends! If you do ever do a weekend gig...let me know! Quote
kiimsent Posted June 16, 2007 Author Posted June 16, 2007 Are you a photographer? You have said that you can only climb weekends. Could you start your weekend leaving on a thursay or a Friday? Quote

ken4ord Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Would I have to wear anything revealing? I am sure just your snaffle pasties will be sufficient. Quote
Alpinfox Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Would I have to wear anything revealing? I am sure just your snaffle pasties will be sufficient. OMG! Did I ever show you those things? GUESS WHAT YOU ARE GETTING FOR CHRISTMAS! Quote
