Ice climbing partner this weekend (12/26-12/27)

[NikiY]

I'm itching to do some ice or mixed climbing this weekend and I need a partner. I'd prefer an objective that is day-trip-able from Seattle but otherwise I don't have anything particular in mind. Some possible objectives could be: practice gully, rap wall, or Chair peak.

 

I'm pretty new to the area and this is my first winter here. I really don't know where the good ice climbs are and would prefer to climb with someone who knows their way around. Back on the East Coast I was consistently leading WI4 and maybe M5ish (on bolts).

While I would love to climb any of those objectives this weekend, Word to the wise, they'll likely all be avalanche death pits... Likely without any ice taboot!

Thanks for the info, I've been keeping my eye on the avy forecast and I am trying to remain optimistic (though realistically it probably won't improve by the weekend).

 

I'd also be down for drytooling at exit 38, cougar mountain, etc.

I'm looking at something easier depending on the weather and dry tooling sounds doable for Saturday as well
