LCC Granite
|
For those of you dying to get on some beautiful granite, I did some recon in LCC this afternoon. I hiked up to the coffin from the Park and Ride (I was the first one). The Coffin is dry. Then I hiked up to Bongeater buttress. I scrambled over to the bottom of the crack and it was dry, but I couldn't tell if it was dry higher up. |
|
did you see anything on cresent crack? i went and climbed perhaps first pitch is really good but the second pitch has some water at the final traverse. |
|
I tried to walk over to the base of Mexican Crack and Crack in the woods, but there was over 2 feet of snow on the ground there and things looked kind of wet. Crescent crack may have been alright, though. The Egg looked dry, but I didn't run up to the base of it. I may check it out tomorrow. |
|
Last week the crescent crack area had someone on each of the classics while I was there. Mexican, crescent, coffin, and bongeater were all good. It should be in even better condition after this nice weather we've had the last few days. |
|
The first pitch of bushwack looks good hopefully schoolroom will be good in like 2 weeks |
|
Jumped on Bongeater yesterday afternoon and it was still wet at the upper 1/3. We ended up TRing it since the offwidth section was pretty much unclimbable. |
|
Pics or it didn't happen. |
|
The Coffin was dry and awesome, so was Mexi Crack. |
|
Bongeater was dry as of yesterday. Variety delight was a little wet at the top on Saturday and Leggo My Eggo, was a blast. |
|
Anyone have any info about crescent crack? |
|
Just got off crescent. A little wetness here and there. Ice in the squeeze. Nice spot chipped out for your #4. The ramp at end has a lot of snow on it which might be stressful for the second climber. We did final link and avoided it. Slab is totally dry. |
|
can't seem to rustle anyone off the ice or snow tomorrow. anyone want to hit the green a gulley or coffin area tomorrow afternoon? |
|
Green A, Gordon's hangover, Gordon's Direct and All Chalk are dry. Bushwack and Cranial Prophylactic looked dry but not sure. Schoolroom looked wet. |
|
Whole shootin' match pretty wet right now... |
|
Here's a somewhat related question as I am heading to SLC in a month....specifically Lone Peak Cirque. |
|
Good luck climbing in Lone Peak the first week of April. Our ski season is still in full swing during that time of the year, and the cirque is roughly 11,000ft. |
|
anyone know if crescent will be dry by Wednesday afternoon? |
|
supposed to rain Wednesday... so prob not. |
|
Anyone know if Perhaps is dry? |

I was on perhaps about 3 weeks ago and it was totally soaked and that was when it didn't rain for 2 weeks or so. |
