Nov 20 road and ice conditions
The dramatic recent temperature drop is doing wonders for ice. Most lines were unclimbable 10 days ago but are good to go now.
Be advised that as of Sat Nov. 20 at 5 pm the road had not been plowed beyond the dam. Be prepared of old school Hyalite Road-eo conditions.
11/20 Twin Falls
Climbed Twin Falls - Right on Saturday 11/20. Formed, but lots of unconsolidated ice and snow between the steeper sections. About two feet of powder to dig through in some spots. TF-Left sounded looked good, but sounded like it could use more time to really form solidly. Cleopatra's Needle was in, touching all the way on left side.
We sure earned that climb after slogging through all the fresh snow. Be prepared. Met some other guys headed up Mummy II, but didn't meet back up after.
No more recon - go climb!
Yes sir, just what I wanted
Yes sir, just what I wanted to hear. I got my truck up and running this weekend, ice tools sharpened up, Im ready to climb
