JosephH Posted January 21, 2008 Author Posted January 21, 2008 I can put together a second cold-weather outfit if anyone is game and is size medium. Quote
sprocket Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Maybe not the right thread for this but being one of the Seattle "snobs" I'm curious if Beacon is a good destination for a moderate trad leader (5.8ish+)? I enjoy reading the posts about trips there but most of the climbs mentioned seem way beyond my abilities and sound fairly committing. Quote
JosephH Posted January 21, 2008 Author Posted January 21, 2008 sprocket - feel free to pm me if you're coming down later this year and if I'm in town I'd be happy to get out with you. Quote

ivan Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 da'lright - will be looking for you, at the base or up the route... Quote
ivan Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 christ - the closing of beacon depresses me! today was awesome - dryer than it's been for me in months out there it seems - cold and clear and windy - nearly ran over old larry while driving out - did the whole lap in warm trangos - why does my baby have to leave me for 5 long goddamn months!?! guess its ozone time.... Â plenty of ice on route Quote
denalidave Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Good times! Hoping the weather guys are all wrong and we can squeeze in a few more laps on Sunday. It never rains in the gorge. Quote

JosephH Posted January 26, 2008 Author Posted January 26, 2008 Yeah, having to deal with that on top of just being Ivan (or any of us) certainly makes things tougher. Good times out there you guys. Dave, we'll have to pick it up when we re-open. Quote
kevbone Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Screw the closing....poach....poach.....!!!!! Quote
denalidave Posted January 26, 2008 Posted January 26, 2008 Screw the closing....poach....poach.....!!!!! mmmm poached wings and gulls, yummy. Quote
