June

[mountainsandsound]

What is the deal? Are you really going to do the whole June-uary thing again this year? You just started and so far I don't like what I've seen. Your forecast doesn't look so hot either. Are you on strike? Jealous of May? WTF?! Been here most of my life. I'm used to shit weather, that is what makes it the evergreen state, but you really should give us just a little taste of summer. I'd like to climb a couple volcanoes this month, but you keep dumping snow above 5,000 ft. and I don't ski. I'd like to do some cragging, but when you moisten the rock it makes it difficult. We got so screwed over with La Nina last year, please shape up and deliver.

Shape up and deliver? June is always like this, here. New to the area?

[mountainsandsound]

No, lived here almost my entire life. I know we don't really get summer until July, anything before is a bonus. Maybe my memory fails me, but I feel like the last few Junes have been especially crappy.

Last year, wasn't summer on a Wednesday in August?

[mountainsandsound]

Hah. Last year summer sucked for the most part but early fall was bomber.

 

Was kind of nice to have some of the alpine routes still in shape well into summer though last year.

And there lies the problem. Why would you tromp up those boring slogs sans boards??

Working on it. Eyeballing the Silvretta 500s. If I came home with more gear a certain someone in my life would be further irritated. Choosing my battles carefully.

Last June was actually pretty nice.

You can keep some shit in my basement. She'll never know.

We get some nice sunny days in June. Every once in a while.

Ah.....Hozomeen lake. I have "fond" memories of schwacking around that far shore. Of course, that was on the last day in May. I didn't trust June.

Just think, if the weather were better here, we'd lose out on CC!!! Everyone would be outside actually climbing instead of talking about it! Where would we go for spineless venom and banter?

this weren't bad neither, though jesus-god it stormed like jesus-fuck come-downl!

[Stefan]

i see something changing a little this coming late Sunday!...albeit only to Tuesday...

[mountainsandsound]

Yes, I see it too. I bet many of the CC addicts are also NOAA addicts as well.
