Lillooet Ice Maps

[LYleK]

Hopefully most who were at the 2001 Lillooet Ice Fest have received a copy of the ice maps. Sorry they're late. And now I've moved from the area so wanted to get that monkey off my back. Bad monkey.

 

And I apologize for the poor kwal, but it'll get you to the routes. The mapper didn't get to my last round of changes, so there's a few glaring errors. And there's a few others that Dru will obsess over for a few months (yes, Lone Star is there). Dru, I'll send you two copies of the south map 'cause I know you'll wear one out right away (though you've got access to a big printer for a few more months...). Fern, it would be appreciated if you wouldn't post an electronic copy of the maps as I'd still like to flog the rights, thanks. No probs with the occasional photocopy, though.

 

I only made enough copies for the icefest participants, so don't have any extras to sell. The maps that get returned will be put in a box at a strategic location in Lillooet (I'll ask the Olexsons at the Esso station when I'm there this weekend). I'll put the names of the maps I get back on this site. So far it's been Rebecca Goulding, Colin Woolridge, Jeff RAbinovitch, Kelly Franz, Kathy Banks, Steve Pakulak, Graeme Taylor, and Mike Meitner (all BC). I'd imagine the US ones may start coming back this week.

 

Too bad the season sucks so far...

Friggin A. Glad to see you are keeping track and stuff. Cheers to that and rye and coke next time I see you if I get mine as well

[LYleK]

Two more back today, Ron George and Stephen Berard.

[CascadeClimber]

Hey Lyle, how can I get my hands on one of those? Can I be Steve Berard? Or can I just buy one?

RE: Hey Lyle, how can I get my hands on one of those? Can I be Steve Berard? Or can I just buy one?

 

Last I heard they were only for people that attended the ice fest long time ago.

[icegirl]

Nice job on the maps Lyle, you are the greatest!!!

 

Except that it just makes me jones for the ice that isn't there.

 

[LYleK]

Just relieved to have it off my to do list , even it's only a copy. Maybe one day it'll be a real map. Dru's already on me about inconsistencies, so here's my first addendum to address the glaring errors

 

Legend Box (dru's catch)

Length of Season is either S = Short, R = Regular, L = Long in the tables. The legend shows Normal where it should be R = Regular.

 

North Map

Vertical text box near the "D" on the left side should indicate that mileage starts at the Bridge River Bridge near Lillooet, not the Seton River Bridge.

 

 

South Map

Okay, this one's got some fuck-ups. I had a lot of changes to be made, but they never made it to the sheet.

1. The following routes should be marked with a *, as I couldn't figure out where they should be on the map. I think most of these are fairly close, though:

 

a. Duffey's Delight

b. The Waiting Game

c. Cowabunga Dude

d. Gung Hai Fat Choi

e. Cut Throat

 

2. Mixing With Mike show ups in the table but not on the map. It's up near Duffey's Delight , but I couldn't quite figure out where;

3. The Straw, same as MWM;

4. Lost Boys shows up on the map near Three Ring Circus but is unlabelled. All of the text was taken off the map. The climb still shows up on the map where I thought it might be, but I didn't want any lost boys or girls out there;

5. Polish Sausage and Cunning Runt are closely associated with the Rambles, but this area needs a detailed topo to show exactly where the are. Cunning Runt is still in the table.

 

LILLYWET ICE DANCERS

 

[Dru]

NORTH MAP: Hangin on a Heartbeat WI6+ is not shown. It is not near the other Marble Canyon routes but is found 45minutes to an hours hike up Dreamweaver Gully*, and (correct me if Im wrong on this Lyle) cannot be seen from the road or approach. Happy sloggin'?

 

* If you don't know where this is, look in Lyle's guidebook, "Central BC Rock".

 

Ice Snafuhound

[LYleK]

Yep, it's not quite on the mapsheet, it's a steep slog but sounds like it's worth it. I was there in the summer and stopped at the base of the weep for a break. An airline luggage tag fell off my pack. So when Iain et al went in for the FA they found the tag and thought I'd scooped 'em.

 

Car Wrecker Gully is another one that didn't make it on the maps. I think it's Pavilion Creek, between the Fraser and what's left of the General Store, but still want to track down Carl to confirm.

 

Names of people who's maps were returned (or I don't have their address):

John Kamencik, Dave Sulina, Jeff Rabinovitch, Steve Pakulak, Kathy Banks, K. Grunenberg, Ron George, Stephen Berard, Lisa Rae, Isabel Budke and Nicole Acerra.

I got my maps. Thanks Rye and coke with a whole barn please

[Dru]

Lyle you can find Lisa Rae's email address on the CASBC home page as she is one of the directors.

[LYleK]

Just talked with Lula at the Esso in Lillooet. Maps that don't get delivered by the end of this month will be behind the counter there (there's only one Esso station). You'll need I.D. for your smokes and maps.

[LYleK]

Two more sets of maps back this week:

 

Robyn Rankin, Steve Jodoin

[Dru]

Yeah forget the maps Lyle, is there any ICE yet?

[CascadeClimber]

Yeah, forget the ice. We know it'll show eventually.

 

Tell me that Santa is going to deliver a plow to the Phair Creek road.
