Regional discussion and conditions reports for the Eastern US. Please post partners requests and trip plans in the Eastern US Climbing Partners section.
After a 7.5-month hiatus, I'm headed up to the High Peaks this weekend. I'd like to climb a slide, but I'm weary of conditions (assuming a few inches of unconsolidated snow on top of ice). I'm not looking to do any technical climbing, just a nice alpine-esque ascent. Thanks.
FYI... I bailed on slides this past weekend due to conditions. Typically a mix of rock and ice... and not enough of either to make climbing worthwhile.
