Nason in the rain?

[orion_sonya]

Does anyone know if the 'caves' at Nason Ridge stay dry in the rain? I know they are steep enough, but do they seep much? ie. do you think they are a go this weekend?

 

thanks,

Orion

i think it'd be ok...plus, level of rain there is less than over here...

i think most of the cave will be dry. i've climbed there in downpours, and the tops of some routes were wet, but the cool middle routes were all dry.

 

unless it's really really windy of course.

 

the caves at vantage will be dry....

I've only clibmed their on dry days but I was told by my buddy that if a wind picks up a bunch, you'll get wet. If their is a only a small breeze you'll find some dry real estate to climb. I'm sure others on this board would be able to give better beta.

Thanks all-

 

It was indeed dry and pleasant over the weekend - no seepage at all in the caves.

 

Where have you been hiding at Kimmo?
