Longs peaked out ;) from the clouds for just a second today. Rain all day. Third precip event up there in the last 7 days. Get psyched.

So, listening to the ole NPR today, they mentioned that the last two years with a strong El Nino (2009 & 2002) resulted in a heavy snowfall around Halloween, which got me thinking. What was the ice climbing like in those El Nino years? I wasn't living in the state at those times, so I would love to hear some feedback from those of you who were.

Climbed the first half of Dreamweaver yesterday in mixed conditions. Good alpine ice on Meeker at the moment. Top of the Loft has water ice.

Was thinking about next week, but we bailed. Too much time and $$ for a crap shoot in your slow to start season. Hell, the Black dike got climbed today. Maybe east!

Dreamweaver! Doesn't have to be in to be IN! Solid performance by Andy on the two crux pitches. Some of the best on-sight climbing in the mountains I've seen from him. Great day out!

I was up in the Longs area yesterday and ice was lean or non-existent. Didn't see much ice on Meekers, the Smear and CrazyTrain lines don't appear to be forming this year. Alexanders looked to have some ice and has been getting some action. For Erik Wellborn- Martha's had some ice forming but prolly needs some time. You better start training now bro cuz its coming!

Took my kom and little sister on a hike at Moffat Tunnel yesterday. There's not a speck of ice. Not entirely unexpected, but I was hoping to see a bit starting to smear up

Dang those Dreamweaver pics have got me hungry! Been trying to tag that route for the past couple seasons and have missed out for various reasons. If anyone is interested in giving it a go in the near future before avy danger becomes a deterrent let me know. I would also be down for any other similar grade routes that may be coming into condition soon. Donald 720 384 3368
