marc_leclerc Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Trip: Slesse Twice in a Day - Date: 7/15/2013 Trip Report: It's been a long time since I posted a report here. But I think some of you may enjoy this read. Here's a link to the report on my blog. Slesse Trip Report Cheer, Marc-Andre Gear Notes: Rock shoes, one tool, strap on pons for my tennies. Approach Notes: Watch out for bears. Quote
telemarker Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Excellent read! It's amazing the ground one can cover unteathered. Thanks for the inside look at your thought processes regarding such an endeavor. Quote
pcg Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Wow! I really enjoyed this. One of the best trip reports ever except would love to see more pics. Quote
JasonG Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 So cool! Thanks for updating the blog, I'd been wondering what you were up to. The part that cracks me up is how worried you were about the bears, not the pocket glacier or the incredible amount of solo climbing that lay ahead! Great story all around, a true gem. Quote
Off_White Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 That's remarkable Marc, thanks for dropping back by to share with us. The arc of your life has been really fun to vicariously view, and your Mom deserves points for her support, nothing to be embarrassed about there. Here's a link to a classic old Cheamclimber TR from the past, thoroughly enjoyable in its own right: Two White Boys Quote
JasonG Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 That is one of my favorite TRs from the archives! Quote
bstach Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Good job, Marc. Remember when we backed off Slesse just below the bivy ledge as it started to snow? You've come a long way, dude. Quote

G-spotter Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Yeah Marc, one day you'll be 50ish and look back fondly on when you could get it up twice in a day solo Quote
TofuTodd Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Gawd Damn. Thanks for the TR! Makes me feel a lot better about why we bailed!! Quote
Rad Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 Amazing outing. Someone should rig a motion sensor on an HD video camera to capture the Pocket Glacier in action. It would be amazing footage. Quote
Don_Serl Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 amazing trip and wonderful TR, marc. you're one of a kind, for sure! Quote
