Description
This is my general info page. Look to my other Plans&Partners pages (linked to below, as they come on-line) for specifics on any particular trip.
Plan is for lots of climbing for me this season, after only one Sierra trip in 2008 season due to a broken ankle. Tentatively I have plans to have a long weekend (typically thurs-sun) in the Eastern Sierra every other weekend, starting in June.
The tenative calendar is:
5-8 June
19-22 June
3-6 July
17-20 July
31 July - 3 Aug
16-17 Aug
28-31 Aug
11-14 Sep
Ritter & Banner
Roughly the Peak Wish List is:
Ritter & Banner
The Palisades Group
Lone Pine Peak via the North Ridge Route
Matthes Crest
Basin (see details HERE) A climb on the classic snow couloir as described in Croft. ///REPORT: pending.///
Darwin & Mendel (see details HERE) (do I dare hope for The Hermit?) ///REPORT: pending.///
Polemonium (see details HERE) ///REPORT: pending.///
Other routes that I can easily be talked into are:
Snake Dike
Royal Arches
I'm honest about my abilities, and a solid follow-thru on my commitments. Expect the same from my partners.
Drop me a PM or email if you have common interests, or matching calendar dates.
Cheers, and Climb On!
