Hi All- Kristen and I are gearing up to release the next issue of Blacklines, just in time for the Ice Festival! We still have some advertising space left if anyone is interested in supporting. Contact Kristen or I for rates and sizes. kristend@montana.edu rebecca_kurowski@hotmail.com Thanks- Becky

I find myself living in Southern Germany for the year, and with no idea where to find decent ice on this continent. I hear vague rumors of the norway and the alps, but lack the funding and vehicle to track stuff down on my own. And my german is not yet up to following comprehensibly what is said in message boards here. I know that there are a few people with international climbing experiance on this site, and thought it might be worth a shot asking if anyone knows of good ice that can be accsessed without a car or sled in southern Germany...

Hey guys just wanted to let you know all of the Carter Mountain climbs are in and good to go in Cody! The valley is still a few weeks away but stay tuned into coldfear.com for updates, it should be a good season. Aaron Mulkey Core Mountain Sports Cody, Wy 877-527-7354 www.coldfear.com

Does anyone know if the forest service has made up their mind about the travel plan as it affects Hyalite?

Hello Me and a buddy are looking to rent 2 rooms in town. November - beginning of april-ish If you know of anything, I'd appreciate it. Thanks Jason Thompson jthompson@jthompsonPhotography.com

Mods: feel free to move this to a different forum if it fits there better :) I know... I know... an ice festival in Portland, OR... are you kidding me? Well... I like to think that just because we don't have consistent ice out here doesn't mean we don't like climbing it. I wanted to extend the invitation to anyone interested...

So my 97 Subaru Outback (160,000mi) is going to need some major repair (tranny, cv joints and possibly head gasket). If you had to pick a low cost vehicle, say under $5000, what would you pick? Should have inexpensive insurance. I'm fine with a van, wagon, some SUVs. The vehicle doesn't need to be anything special. Dirt roads and some snow roads will be driven on. Cheers, Brad

This is from the article I wrote in the SMCC Newsletter: "I talked with Jose Castro, Bozeman District Ranger, prior to writing this article. He said that the GNF [i]could[/i] be open to the construction of a ?warming hut? off the Hyalite trail if climbers thought it would be useful. He knows that these have been built successfully in Colorado and thought that if a volunteer organization (SMCC) wanted to fund, build and maintain it, the GNF may be agreeable.

As many of you know, a large land conservation project involving over 2000 acres has been underway on the Pass for the past few years. The project will protect a critical wildlife corridor and provide new access points to public lands. The project will also directly benefit the climbing community. Many of you contacted the Montana Congressional delegation last year in support of this project.

In order to keep it from possibly being hacked I'd suggest you ban him. I run a forum of my own and am trying to keep him from getting access. I don't want to see this place get hacked...great resource for all montana climbers!
