kluther2000 Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Some friends and I are planning on climbing The Brothers this weekend via the standard route. Any report regarding recent conditions? Quote
Superman Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Have you seen the forecast? Bring an umbrella would be my advice. Quote

Weekend_Climberz Posted June 8, 2007 Posted June 8, 2007 Don't listen to these poosies, go and get some. Helicopters can reach the top of that thing anyway, so just bring a T-shirt some shorts and a cellphone and live it up. Cheers Quote

i_like_sun Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Although it is probably not REALLY necessary, take a helmet for the upper chutes. I almost died there once. Quote
Norman_Clyde Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Although it is probably not REALLY necessary, take a helmet for the upper chutes. I almost died there once. No way, man. Too much weight. Pebbles will whiz past your cranium like bullets, but what are the odds they'll actually hit you? Quote
Flying_Ned Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Norman, you've clearly not been up there in late season. The hourglass can be a pinball alley without snow. To save weight, you can try an inflatable helmet. BTW, North Brother in a couple of weeks, I think. Quote
