Trip: Paulina Falls - just ice bouldering

 

Date: 11/26/2007

 

Trip Report:

Checked out Paulina Falls today. There wasn't a line that I wanted to do without having a belayer. (was up there by myself) I did some fun ice bouldering on the right falls though. If it stays cold or gets colder anyone want to head up there this Friday or Saturday?

Falls on climbers right. There was a line of ice connected top to bottom on the right but very thin/steep.

Was climbing at Paulina Falls Thursday. Everyone was a bit surprised with the warm conditions considering the sub zero temps we have been having for several days in a row. The ice quality was rather poor but climbable. A member of the other party climbing on the left side of the falls was lowered into the open creek at the base of the falls swinging out of control, and lucky he didn't get hurt.
