Untitled CommentThank you for the good vote Dean!
This is near your favorite (if I remember right?) climbing/hiking area - The Enchantments?

Untitled CommentYes indeed. Up the trail and over the hill a few miles lurks the Enchantments.

Untitled CommentMust have Orbit and Outerspace. Oh sorry, I was daydreaming. With this weather, there might be good climbable granite by March!
Speaking of good routes in Leavenworth, the next time you go try Cocaine Crack on Icicle Creek Buttress, and let me know what you think. Yeah, I know the book only says 2 stars, but honestly I've never felt so excitied, moved, happy, and stoked after a pitch in my life. It is so much fun!!! Pretty easy for a 10A (short crux section). Perfect third knuckle fingerjambs and great pro.

Untitled CommentI know how you feel Martin. Must have SOME climbing - anything !!!! - real soon or I just might snap.... ;)
You have any pic's of that Cocaine Crack Martin? Back in the day we were talking about adding that buttress to SP - would love to see some shots of it if you have them.
wonder if l-worth had anything dry enough this weekend? not sure what the weather's been like there. I couldn't believe when we got weathered out of Smith (SMITH!!!!??? of all places??!!) 2 weeks ago!
take care man, it can only get better....

Untitled CommentJust checked out my Leavenworth pics from last year. I don't have any. I think my friend Matt (NYC007) has some. It is the white streak to the left of the third pitch (the chimney pitch) on R&D. I have several good pics of Another Roadside Attraction, a 3 pitch 5.9 slab climb that Matt and I did on Icicle that I could submit a route for, if you do a page.
I guess Leavenworth got a lot of snow during that cold spell, but at this rate, the climbing could be good soon!
Do you have any good Peshastin pics? I got a bunch. Maybe I'll do a page there.
Cheers,
Martin
