shaoleung Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Any Beta on dry/easy approaches to crags along the Icicle? I am itching to get onto some real rock this weekend but I don't want to trudge through snow for half the day. Buttress? Wart wall? Drip Wall? Condorphamine? Suggestions? Thanks! Quote
mattp Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 At Icicle Buttress and Z Crack you can just about belay from sitting in your car. Quote
mattp Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 I bet with 99% certainty the rock is bare and wet. check weather cam Quote
AlpineMonkey Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I climbed Z crack yesterday and now I have a fuzzy feeling finger. Did Condorphamine on Sunday, approach and climb all snow free and dry. The rock is all bare and dry on most S. slopes. Watch for creepy crawlers though. Quote
shaoleung Posted April 1, 2009 Author Posted April 1, 2009 Great! With all the snow in Seattle I figured things must be buried up there. Quote
shaoleung Posted April 1, 2009 Author Posted April 1, 2009 Depending on where you are, there was snow today. Didn't stick, but it was coming down. Quote
