crimper Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 hey markd. it's a nice route but come on now, best route in central OR? i know that surely you jest. then again i never climbed past the roof that day, or saw the route without the tree growing out of it, so maybe i shouldn't judge....

crimper Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 and i knew that surely you jested. the other night while putting ian down to bed (a tiresome process) i had my eyes closed re-living the FA of the summitting chimney just to the right of the cougar headwall, and how glad i am we did it groundup and didn't clean it on rappel or place any fixed gear. i wonder if anyone has climbed it since we each led it? anyway, i wish we'd been able to take some photos of that FA as well.
