Jens Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 With the recent extended cold snap, I've got to think that the Mickey's gulley and Hey Mikey, he likes it routes have got to be huge. Has anyone been in to check them out? Mickey's gully isn't visible from the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CascadeClimber Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Revenge looked fat last Sunday mid-day. Can only be fatter now. Mikey's Gully is hidden from the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckaroo Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Did a solo recon last sat. The approach is heinous due to the recent show, snowshoes are okay at first but the slope below the climbs is too steep for them, spent over an hour swimming uphill on what would be normally be a relatively short approach. The ice isn't all that great. Not sure what their named but the 2 lines I looked at are sort of thin and have a lot of snow on them. I soloed up about 20' but turned back because of too much unconsolidated snice between fair sections of ice. The other thing that sucks is the logistics of the gate, you can't get an early start or come back late. Got run out of the place around 6Pm and the ranger lady made me put on the chains even though I didn't need them. Lucky she didn't give me a ticket, several years ago a stater left me a ticket for no chains on my parked car at paradise, never even saw him face to face.
