"So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life."

Ice ChuteThe chute just above the Hotlum-Wintun snowfield seemed to be iced up on 3-Sept-2006, so we climbed that instead of traversing to the climber's right over the rock into the ice gully to the left of the Hotlum Headwall.
The ice was mostly about 35-40 degrees, highly featured, and fairly aerated near the surface, but good blue ice underneath. Maximum angle I would guess was about 40-45 degrees, with slightly steeper bulges here and there.
