How to Post photos

Submitted by jimurl on Fri, 11/21/2008 - 15:12

 

OK, with the new website, posting photos is a bit different .... here's how:

1. Upload the photo: use the "File attachment" link at the bottom of the "post new topic" page.

2. There is no pop-up window like there used to be - it just uploads it right there. After the photo is uploaded, it tells you what the URL is.

3. Copy that URL for the image. Then, below the "body" where you are typing, look for the little tree icon- that's the "insert/edit image" icon.

4. Click on that, then paste the URL for the image into the URL field.

Steamboat Alley

Ok so here's the pictures from this Monday.  Mike and I climbed "Steamboat Alley" on Steamboat mountain, which is on the way to Cataract falls south of Augusta.  We climbed it last year for the first time.  I led that year and Mike led this year.  It's a sorta sublimated / polished WI5, vertical on a slightly overhanging wall, older ice as the water flow shuts down early in the year.  It was a thin, intimidating but a really really

I don't know where to post on Cataract falls, close to Augusta. I guess do it under GNP.

The road is fine, busted drifts, you could get a subaru in there fine I think.

The ice is, well, pretty damn wet today. Huge hole in the top part thats raining water all over everything.  Which will be good when it's colder.  But today it just made US colder.  Next week should be bueno.

anybody aware of anything ready for climbing on 2 between falls and browning?

Avalanche Lake

Since the road to the campground was still open today, went up to take a look.  The ice is there, but up high, around the 5,000 ft. mark.  (if going up head up real early)

The pig and monument falls are in, needs to build more, but climbable.  If going to monument falls, you need to traverse as if heading to the pig.  The easy ice that you need to climb to get to monument falls and memorandum is not in.  Memorandum looks in, but first pitch looks hard.

The lake is not frozen.

Cannon has ice,but it also is really high.  Cannon barrel is close.

I saw the post from jsmiley about no ice yet up there but I also saw a forecast of lows in the single digits with highs in the teens and 20's for then next 10 days in GNP.  Anyone think something will form by sat/sun?  Also, Just moved to Missoula and have no partners for glacier area but would love to get on any of those routes up there if anyone needs a partner.  contact me at: dmarbarger@hotmail.com

Game On

Two climbers from Kalispell climbed Sixpack over the weekend and exited left to east ridge of Edwards, then descended Cuomo Pass. They reported scary windslab, and that was before the latest snowfall. Maybe they will post up. Be careful out there!

Snyder Basin Climbs

Submitted by Jim Cossitt on Fri, 11/28/2008 - 21:44

 

Went up to Snyder today, the whole ampitheatre was big menacing daggers hanging down but not touching with lots of water coming off of them.  The trail in was in good shape, no or minimal snow.  Found the safest spot, did some bouldering but not in shape for serious climbs until we get more cold weather and more fully formed features.

Snow line is at 4,000 ft.  2 inches at the lake and 8-12 inches at 6,500 ft.  Ice is forming in the Northeast and North Aspects and is very thin.  Monument Falls has ice from top to bottom and is also thin.  Thicker formations at higher elevations on the North East aspects with some large curtains forming with a few narrow drips.
