KingsMM Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Anyone want to check out some cooper spur/north side of Hood ice? Anyone who has been up there recently have any pictures? I have tools, screws, rope, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el jefe Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 i'm interested, but access to these routes is somewhat more involved owing to the current closure of the cloud cap road and tilly jane trails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WageSlave Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I'd be game to do some scouting with you one of these weekends. Hopefully we'll be getting some cold weather and precip up there. A week and a half ago it was a shitfest with rocks coming down off of everything and hardly any ice anywhere. It hasn't been that cold since then.
