Cardinal Pinnacle

That's a good offer from x15x15. I've never been lucky enough to find ice at Tahquitz, at least not enough for more than a move or two. The last time, years ago, was after a recent dump and we were worked wading through thick snow up to the base. The rock was plastered with ice chips, all of which started cascading down on us when it warmed up. An adventurous day, but only a couple of pitches of sketchy, Scottish type climbing.

Ended up going to Pine Creek and climbing John Fischer Memorial Route on Friday. I did a lot of cleaning on the 10c pitch so it probably protects a lot better. The crack was full or dirt and only a few spots to place pro

p.s.

I spoke with two climbers on Sunday and said they got two ropes stuck on the rap this past Saturday. So if anyone is willing, there is two ropes stuck up there and a biner

Were they British? Because I think I met them in Yosemite recently, LOL!

That's when you borrow a rope and get your gear back.
