rob Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Done! I'll bring the Quik-Shade, just in case of rain... Dude! Don't say the 'r' word!!
Sherri Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 (edited) If Rob's coming, it's gonna rain for sure. Now we're ALL jinxed. Edited September 30, 2008 by Sherri
Peter_Puget Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 We need to organize a carpool so into town so we can watch the championship series games!!!!!!!
sobo Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Done! I'll bring the Quik-Shade, just in case of rain... Dude! Don't say the 'r' word!! D00d, by having the canopy (ergo, prepared for rain), ipso facto guarantees that it won't rain. It only rains when you're not prepared for it.
olyclimber Posted October 1, 2008 Author Posted October 1, 2008 So I'd like to get a rough headcount so I know how much food to bring up for Saturday night and how much beer to get. Post if you're coming and how many will be coming up with you. I don't need to know that you're not coming, thanks! Slideshow will be on Saturday night, but I'll be up on Friday night with the beer.
rob Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I'll be there, +1. Of course, it's highly possible that my car will burst into flames on the way there, or I will be injured in a bizarre blimp accident, so I'm not promising anything.
Sherri Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 If it's not cold and rainy, I'll be there with bells on. Don't worry about including me in the head count, though; I don't do beer or weenies. And I'm not sitting next to Rob.
Dave_Schuldt Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 So that's like 3 people so far... I'll know by this weekend.
mattp Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I'll be there even if it is cold and rainy. We've always found something to climb, even on the cold and wet weekend of ropeup 2001 or 2002 (I can't remember which). [img:left]http://www.washingtonclimbers.org/Climbing/peshastin.jpg[/img]
Dirtyleaf Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Lookin' for a ride. Live in Roslyn. (Right off of I-90) send me a pm-Geoff
mattp Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) By the way, this year the moon is in perfect phase for night climbing. 5 days before full, it will be big and up high early in the night. Here's a picture from a climb of Midway during ropeup maybe 2003 or 2004... [img:left]http://cascadeclimbers.com/plab/data/517/medium/420midway1.JPG[/img] Edited October 1, 2008 by mattp
sobo Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I'll be there, Friday night for beer through Sunday afternoon/evening. I'll be sitting with Sherri. Chumstick Snag, eh? Still haven't touched the top of that one. When I went in to do it about 9 or 10 years ago, I thought it was supposed to go free. I couldn't figger it out...
mattp Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 The Snag is cool, but not rally anything special but a lark and access crosses private and gated property. But the Pinnacles and a good choice if it is dreary in the canyons.
sobo Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Yah, when we went in, we checked in with, and got permission from, the guy who's got the howitzer in his front yard. He indicated that "a lot" of people visit Chumstick. This was before cc.com came online. I guess it must be you who he indicated was "a lawyer friend of his" that comes by every so often to climb it.
mattp Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Nope. I've only been there once and haven't felt the need to go back. There is so much to do in the Leavenworth area...
sobo Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I just wanna get to the top... just once. The pic in FB's Challenge of the North Cascades is stuck in my mind. It's what drove me to find the Snag in the first place.
DPS Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I'll be there Sat-Sun. Looking for running partners for the snow lakes-colchuck lake loop run on Sunday. Willing to climb with newbies on Saturday on easy stuff (Midway, Groundhogs Day, Saber, R+D, etc).
olyclimber Posted October 1, 2008 Author Posted October 1, 2008 For the slideshow on Saturday night: 1. Blake showing slides of the new routes he has put up this year 2. Sol showing slides of new routes in the Enchantments 3. I have one other guy that I'm waiting to see if he'll get back to me. 4. After that we can have it open so you all can show slides if you want.
kevino Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I'll be there, plus my roommate, plus my climbing partner David. Dan - if the weather is bad, I'll be more than happy to do that loop with you.
DPS Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Dan - if the weather is bad, I'll be more than happy to do that loop with you. Sounds good, looking forward to meeting everyone.
lunger Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 i will be there and drink for 3. will bring 1, possibly more. Enchants through hike/run def. appeals if weather marginal. extra purty up there this time of year. porter, if there's time i might put in a few pics...
AlpineK Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Sobo I'll climb the snag with you. I've never been to that crag. It'll be just me there as of right now. Things change occasionally though.
olyclimber Posted October 1, 2008 Author Posted October 1, 2008 Still looking for folks to bring some firewood. If you have some in the Seattle area I can bring some up in my truck.
