Dru Posted July 20, 2002 Posted July 20, 2002 story about glaciers melting faster than had been thought Quote
Terminal_Gravity Posted July 22, 2002 Posted July 22, 2002 Okay, bad news for glaciers but look at the bright side... no more Washington DC. Quote
Off_White Posted July 23, 2002 Posted July 23, 2002 Yeah, and first one to rap bolt a line on McKinley's South Face wins! Just imagine, 50 pitches and nothing but quickdraws... Quote
Bug Posted July 28, 2002 Posted July 28, 2002 In the mid 80's the Blue Ice Couliour on the Grand was melted down to ice that was 1000 years old. The top two pitches of the North Couliour of the Middle was frozen mud and the "moderate snowfield to the summit" was a bone dry 600' first ascent on clean low angle granite. Quote
The_Anti-Twight Posted July 28, 2002 Posted July 28, 2002 You mean the "Black Ice Couloir" on the Grand. Quote
