Reid Headwall- Mt Hood








President's Day brought us some of the most fantastic weather of the season. Bobby, from Eugene, and Mihai, from Olympia took full advantage of the clear spell and climbed the Reid Headwall with Pete on Mt Hood. We found some deeper than anticipated snow on the lower headwall, but up higher it firmed up and we had some nice climbing. Our 2008 climbing season is officially on!

9 O'Clock Couloir, Broken Top




Tara, Jeff and Pete headed in to Broken Top again to climb 9 O'clock Couloir and do some skiing. We had a great day and fine weather. We wanted to focus on a bit of ropework to get ready for our Haute Route ski tour next month, so we did a bit of climbing and a bit of skiing too. Is spring already here?
