Gary_Yngve Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 there needs to be a tunneling rating standard now. T1: minor groveling to get past a lip, just a few minutes T2: an hour of digging, several feet of tunneling T3: a few hours of digging, more than ten feet of tunneling, some obj hazard/instability ... T7: Chunnel sounds like Colin might have had a T4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lagriff_27 Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 My hiking/climbing partner and I are headed to Chile in March, we'd like to climb Mt El Plomo (5,424 m.) In the Santiago area, ascent averages 4 days. Most routes are not very technical, glacier travel skills are needed. We'd like to add one or 2 good climbers to the team, to deal with potential crevasse issues. Anyone have some suggestions? Know of climbing clubs in Santiago that we could post something to? We could also be persuaded to go to Yerba Loca Nature Santuary and climb the Mts. La Paloma and El Altar (4,960 and 5,200 m.) If you've been there, or know some climbers in the area, we'd love to hear from you. Thanks! Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
