many, summers of '85 & 86Had the good fortune of living close enough to spend many a weekend day climing here. Did many of the moderate classics, but would love to make it back for more - maybe someday.

1st Day Ice ClimbingWe climbed North End Pillars multiple times, thresher, and some other climbs in between thresher and the pillars

Route Climbed: Regular (Toe Crack) and a 5.8 around Refuse Date Climbed: Early 80'sDid this in my EB's. On my second visit, did the 5.8 with a 5.9 finish which was on a steep slab. I was not skillful enough to do the 5.9 in the EB's but used some sticky Firés by Boreal. The Firés had just come out and were a big technical improvement.
