Quick and Dirty




Just had to show these pictures. The top and bottom pictures are from Jan 05/09 and the middle one is from Jan 04/08. As of last Sunday, Pearl Necklace and Q&D were still looking pretty anemic. Pilias des Putain still has a ways to go. French Kiss is in excellent shape.

Q&D looks way fatter than it did two weeks ago, saw a young feller from ontario whip from the top when we were there last. It was nuts.

Was that your post on Gravsports??
That's crazy. I can't believe the guy didn't get hurt. That's a huge fall, especially on ice. Falling 1meter on ice scares me never mind that kind of a fall.

Hi Blair,

Could you please put a posting up on this blog letting people know that as of today (Sunday, Jan 11th), the road into Jensen's is pretty well impassable. There are two big drifts near the lower spillway (about 1 km below the windmills) that are huge, and I would have certainly high-centered in my 4X4. I've never seen the drifts so big there.

So as it is now, it's about a 30 minute walk up the road into the Jensen's ice climb. A real approach, just like a real ice climb! :)

Once you're there, the ice at Jensen's is wonderful; thick and plastic - with a nice steeper line near the top on the left.

Thanks,

Brad Hagen
