Quit teasing me! :D

Doug, Nice trips and reports. Thanks for sharing! Woody

Great trip report and sweet pics! YA...It really bugs me when Nif is so slow!...and I'm going to tell her as soon as I catch up with her! :p

Here is a link from the Cascade Climbers forum. They abuse the unfortunate as much as this board does :(

I would guess that they somehow dropped their rope. Without a rope you can't go up and you can't go down on that route.

Hey Mats! Where's that keg of Heineken?!

This was a really nice moderate route, although it would probably suck on a wet day with mostly slab climbing. We had a great time with great company.

Doug, Thanks for the picture. Now I'll have to come back out to see the Old Man and you! Woody

Leaf was waiting at the pull-out across from Willey's slide on 302 in Crawford Notch on Saturday morning at 8 am when I pulled in right on schedule after leaving my house at 5:15 am. We knew that Jeff would be right along. He went zipping right past us about 10 minutes later. We were on the...

If your son has not climbed in Tuckerman Ravine it is worth the trip!

Tom and Atticus: Thanks for helping all of our pets. You are both great hikers and a wonderful team.

Secrets of the Notch Secrets of the Notch by Jon Sykes is the best guidebook I know of for the Franconia Notch area. I like Echo Crag. The access is very easy but most of the routes need to be lead first to set up a top rope on routes.

Thanks for the pics! Congratulations!

Kevin, Thanks for the informative post. I think the improvements are going in the right direction.

You are amazing! Courtney, It took incredible courage to attempt a double pemi loop and to try in your limited amout of time is truely amazing. You should be really proud of what you have accomplished! Now it's time to climb!!!

Chip and Paradox, Congratulations on a good climb. Hiking in the Whites and the Adks is good training for the Cascades, especially doing winter 4K's here in the Northeast. I would agree that good conditioning is the key for a fun trip. My brother and I took a trip up Rainier in '05 with RMI...

A couple of years from now Alan and I have been talking about trying Denali in a few years from now when he turns 50 and I'll be 51. Reading about this crew struggling a bit is making think I better up my training schedule now! :eek: I had a tough time just skiing into Roaring Brook this...

A G9!! I can't get a new camera right now but I have narrowed down my choices to the Canon G9 (p&s) or the XSi (dslr). I like the G9 because it has an optical viewfinder as well as a 3 inch LCD screen to go with its 12.1 mp resolution and 6X optical zoom. I like that it can shoot fully manual...

Regardless of who summited I am sure they are all having a good trip. It will be really successful when they all get home! Chinooktrail: Thanks for being a wonderful messenger!

I would think that the usual suspects for a hike like this are presently in Alaska and without computer access.
