Wooooo! Yes, I'll admit that I'm a little over excited, but its going to be a good season. Mt Rainier and the Black Dike are on the horizon (at the very least). Post some pictures on here eh?

Haha, I know man! But all the plans are coming together now, so there it is. It can't be helped at this point.
Awesome pictures everyone!

Very nice. That seems like it must have been an interesting picture taking experience.

Thanks!
No big deal, really. About 15 m up on a WI4. Found a good stance, and just leaned over with a Canon Ixus point-and-shoot. I'm very happy with the result

Thanks! I wanted to climb the flow but found out my car insurance policy didn't include "intentional serrated gash marks from sharpened death picks"

Yes! Definitely getting geared up for the season.
No photos to contribute, but I made this video of some glacier ice wandering in Alaska this summer.

Enjoy the upcoming season!

This was my only ice climb. Pretty mellow bunch of steps. My partner solo'd it then lowered a rope for me. Climbed with a Quark and a BD Raven Pro. A little awkward with the mountaineering ax but it got the job done and was great for the rest of the snow slog.
