CollinWoods Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Now that there are longer days and better weather (hopefully, maybe, we’ll see) Mattp and I have talked about making mid-week climbing trips after work to either Index or Exit 38. Is anyone else up to this or have any other good ideas? Maybe we could set up a car pool or something… What do you all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPS Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Great idea. We could meet at the Issaquah Park and Ride and car pool to Exit 38. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braydon Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I'd be up for that as well...what time, on average do you plan on leaving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollinWoods Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 Braydon, that is what i was wondering myself. What time works best for everyone? I get out at 1:40 but was hoping i can hich a ride and split gas. I can meet any one around Bothell or other near by places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toast Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Wednesdays used to be a regular gig. Just pick a day of the week, and make it regular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollinWoods Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Wednesdays used to be a regular gig. Just pick a day of the week, and make it regular. Thats what mattp said. This is his idea. Wednesdays sounds good to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peakpimp Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Ok we get it already! But seriously, Im up for wednesdays too! Just let me know when and where to be.

Do you all want to hit up Exit 38 this Wednesday (depending on weather)? I dont really care what wall, any preferences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CollinWoods Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yeah it looks like the weather is going to be pretty bad. 80% chance of precipitation for Issaquah. How does next Wednesday sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CollinWoods Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 Only on weekends and during the summer, Frank. Thanks alot though, if you ever want to hit it up this summer, i would be more than happy too. Im looking out my window and its raining pretty hard (this sucks) we can decide if it will be worth it monday or tuesday. It looks like it might rain but lets hope for the best.

Peakpimp Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I'm off all day next wednesday and available to climb as early as necessary! Lets hope for some decent weather! -Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankstoneline Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I have a really mellow quarter coming up, so I should be available almost any day except thursday. Also: my floor (though rather small) is always open if any of you folks want to hit vantage or leavenworth and need somewhere to crash. I'm just getting back into climbing, so I'd gladly tag along anywhere someone's willing to put up with/teach me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattp Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Looks like rain but... It looks like real wetness - not just a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Great stoke guys! I'd be interested in picking a day (my vote is Tuesday) that could be an "anyone that shows- meet at the crag after work" weekly ritual that could be ongoing from April through June. Pick a day and go. On rainy days it could be world wall 1 (stays dry in the rain) and on dry days it could be anywhere else around north bend. Index is tough for Seattle folk to battle traffic for a few hours of after work cragging. It could be a set in stone ongoing thing. -------------------------- As for after work belayers, sadly many of the regulars at my Seattle Climbing Gym only ever seem to talk about outdoor climbing and seem to instead be content to climb outside once every seven weeks at best. Many would rather yard away on the same 3-4 indoor routes on the overhanging lead wall month after month and then wonder why they climb a full number grade less on footworky routes at places like smith.

sisu Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I would be game for a set day per week to climb. I am carless but will happily chip in for gas if anyone is coming from Sodo/south Downtown area after 5pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
