Seems like there have been a lot of SLCO SAR calls in the past three weeks, especially for climbers.

Knees getting strong everyday, been able to start running and am pushing the conditioning. I honestly feel strong from a leg perspective than before the injury.
Getting back into climbing shape. Was able to send the Abyss (12d) over the weekend. So that was rad.
Keep it up crew!

Tram club and snow pine should probably be open.

was hoping for a top-down high boy lap last night, but I probably should've taken a closer look at the mountain before I started going up..
eagle's nest still in good shape, devil's castle getting a little sun cupped but not terrible. most of the high-t is pretty dry other than sunspot and stonecrusher.
KSL is reporting a climbing fatality of Superior, Lone climber apparently slipped. SAR is headed up for recovery . All you LCC Mags accounted for?
damn....Quote:

KSL is reporting SAR being dispatched 10 of the last 12 days, that's insane. Take care of your self and your team mates.Quote:

He went up the south ridge, summited, started down the east ridge and went over the cliff at the top of the weather station.Quote:

Saw some runners starting up the South Ridge this morning in shorts with small trail running packs. I told them it was really windy/cold and the snow was firm and treacherous and I got a "Thanks bro"
Sigh...Quote:

When you say weather station do you mean the one on top of Cardiff peak or is there another one I've never noticed along the ridge?
Yeah, that one, he was so close to the end.Quote:
