nkane Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 At the beginning of July, I'm taking leave of these fair shores and moving to New York City. Since I've only lived in Portland for two years, I'm quitting my job as of Friday and taking June off to climb. I'm looking for partners to climb with midweek throughout the month. Goals: -Run up Hood at least one more time -Do something in the Olympics - climbing, backpacking, alpine, whatever. I've never been there and it seems like an awesome place. -Cragging at Smith, French's, Broughton, Ozone (never been there either) -Alpine routes in the ALW, North Cascades Here's me: Here's my rack (it's a little bigger now): Quote
jhamaker Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 p.m. me. I'm busy climbing this wk but will be free to climb next wk. There is still a lot of snow, so I'll be getting arround on skis. N Cascades and Enchantments fit the bill realy well. If it is wet in the mountains, then Frenchman's Coulee or Smith, mabey City of Rocks would be fun. Quote
jlag Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 Don't climb with Frank, he's a real jerk. just kidding, the guy fucking cranks. I'm down for afternoon sessions midweek at Smith, just let me know when your around. JL Quote
pdk Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 I second that about Frank. I'm also looking to get out for midweek jaunts. Usually just day stuff, but depends on work schedule. Alpine, ice, rock, whatever. Donnie donniekolb@gmail.com Quote
cpgeorge123 Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 I'm looking to head up into the N Cascades this weekend for a day trip, depending on how deep the snow is. I have my eyes on Snowfield Peak via Pyramid Lake. The Olympics would be a great option too, but haven't checked out how deep the snow is there too. Maybe Constance? Quote
fheimerd Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 Didn't know I had such a bad rep. I might need a partner for the 6th, 7th and 8th. Maybe north cascade or olympics. Do you ski? Quote
nkane Posted May 28, 2008 Author Posted May 28, 2008 Wow! An explosion of potential partners! I'm booked for this weekend and the 5th-8th, but I am looking for anyone who wants to climb Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday morning. I do ski, and I have AT skis and skins but no AT boots, so I'd have to either score a pair of boots or lug heavy alpine boots for any ski travel. Looking forward to getting out! Quote
Khartoum Wood Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 (edited) how about eldrado peak would be you up for that i dont have a car so i could split gass cost if thats ok weekend after next i will be free 360 392-0386 bellingham wa Edited June 15, 2008 by Khartoum Wood Quote
nkane Posted June 16, 2008 Author Posted June 16, 2008 Anyone want to climb Mt. Hood this week? Only day I can't go is Wednesday. I was thinking Leuthold or Reid, depending on conditions. Quote
Alex Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Go do Olympus if you get a few days of good weather, you'll kick yourself if you don't. Quote
Mckenzie Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Are you interested in climbing (and skiing) Monday evening/Tuesday morning on the South side of Hood? Quote
climbinggal Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 (edited) Wasn't me that gave you that idea now was it? I'd put a thread out elsewhere related to the same kind of thing, quitting job, big break and climbing, work in a different job after that.. I've done Smith' it's fantastic.

Khartoum Wood Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 if you ever need a partner to climb with im down as long as you dont mind doing it on foot Quote
