Looks like this week's weather might allow a few Beacon sessions. Skied Mt Hood Meadows today and since it was closed yesterday due to extreme storm, it was epic conditions this morning in 2 feet of new, and in the sunshine all day. At 2:30 they opened the upper chair Cascade, and got to plunder the upper part of the mountain, sweet pow. It was warming up there, so I think this week will put a heavy crust up on Hood, and it it chills back up next weekend, could be good winter ascent conditions.

Bring it on Ben, anytime!

Steve, two clean, fast raps to the ground with a 60, one w/ two 60's. If you do it with a single 60 then you have to remember to go to the 'Bears in Heat' anchor out of sight around the corner to the left near the end of the first rap - don't go to either of the anchors your can see as you start rapping and especially don't try to reach the one on the right. Only go to that one if you have a 70.

Any of the Beacon crew want to drive on out to Hood river and we'll take you guys cragging out here? When its raining at Beacon many times, it will be sunshining out east here.

 

I'd love to connect sometime once the weather gets bad....I can only belay to 5.10 these days however......
