Yes, there was a little snow.

Here's Zander is coming up the first pitch of Scimitar...

On the drive up I asked him if he'd ever climbed Fantasia. "No, I don't know if I'm ready for that runout."

He appeared to enjoy leading the 2nd pitch on Scimitar, though.

Topping out...

Climbing Haystack, the reflections off water streaming down East Wall were PURTY! I was glad that Zander led the 3rd pitch (5.7d?).

A great day a the Leap! But, a little bittersweet knowing it was likely the last trip there this season...

Two days ago le_bruce and I got up Goodrich Pinnacle (right side) on Glacier Apron. We came really close to bailing because it was wet. Kinda creepy when your feet barely stick and the rubber is squeaky as it slips a little bit, then trying to pick out the "eliminates" route where little dry spots appear between the water rivulets. At one point had to commit to a traverse through the water, and a critical microflake broke off and I was hanging by a curled fingertip with both feet on wet slab above a ledge... all in all a good adventure and it was truly nice to finish a route over there for a change. And no headlamps required!

Of course I still have to get it together to reach the Oasis someday and work up to Galactic Hitchhiker. Pictures coming in another thread when I reclaim my camera from le_bruce.

EDIT: We climbed the RIGHT side... changed 'left' to 'right' above.

If you remember what you just climbed, you're not climbing enough.

Well it wasn't very hard, and certainly not very high. But it was me and it was today.

Beautiful weather for November 16th in the Okanogan Valley.

Out at Santee, AGAIN! Check out this little reptile that I made quick friends with on the way down in the dark...

I about poo'd my pants! That's 13 rattles on that tail! Look at the size of his midsection...almost as big as my forearm!
