Cascades winter climbing partner sought

Howdy,

I might be in the Bend area for a little while, & would love to get out & climb things.

Trad' (Trout Creek or anywhere warm enough to climb during the winter), sport (not usually my thing, but hey- I'm here, & people say it's pretty good around here), or alpine (love it- Bend area to Hood to Washington)- I'm down.

.10s trad', ice- & mixed on the side of a mountain (WI3-5, M3-5ish?), clipping bolts, it's all good. Lemme know. Safe climbing :)

Hey Diggler,
Im in Bend and would be willing to get out for some climbing... I dont do much snow/ice, but if you wanted to clip some bolts I am down. If you wanted to hit Trout, or the Lower Gorge of Smith for some trad action, then im DEF down. Im happy to ropegun, or point out the classics for you to try. Let me know when you will be in town.

Sounds good, Mike. Good chance I'll take up your offer on the local rock climbs. If you're interested, I could put up lines on some ice/mixed lines, too. Let's talk soon!

Carried down alive to wondrous depths, where strange shapes of the unwarped primal world glided to and fro before his passive eyes /.../ Pip saw the multitudinous, God-omnipresent, coral insects, that out of the firmament of waters heaved the colossal orbs. He saw God's foot upon the treadle of the loom, and spoke to it; and therefore his shipmates called him mad.

So man's insanity is heaven's sense, & wandering from all mortal reason, man comes at last to that celestial thought which, to reason, is absurd & frantic; & weal or woe, feels then uncompromised, indifferent as as his God.
