Welsford Dec.6th

Postby *Chris* » Sun Dec 07, 2008 9:17 pm

Did my first pitch of full-on aid today :D Awesome. What a wicked day. We hiked up in freezing rain but luckily enough it turned to snow by the time we racked up. Made for a great bunch of adventure climbing. I learned:

1) cams hold in wet, icy cracks,
2) 2 lobes making good contact are totally good enough
3) those tiny #2 and #3 BD nuts actually have a purpose

Anway... aside from spraying... I have a point. I thought I'd mention that absolutely everything was seeping and with cold weather should freeze up pretty good by next weekend.

Also... a green alien was left underneath the gumby roof move. If somebody is going though there anytime soon ( :roll: ) I'm sure they wouldn't mind cleaning it eh?

(disclaimer... Henni did the arch... not me)
