Mt Hood NF Stoke/Conditions

[ColinB]

A couple of us got lured up to Cooper Spur after Nate's little writeup on ice up there.

 

 

Here's the ice that Nate mentioned.

-Left-most one is pretty darn thin after this bit of heat.

-Middle one has visible rock though it.

-Right one is a free-standing pillar, so someone with bigger preseason balls than me can go get 'er.

 

 

Much, much higher res copies can be found at

Have fun out there.

sweet, that fawker has tantalized me for some time now -- looks like a fun climb - especially now that the "rock" is frozen together, thanks for the pics!
