Dannible Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Weird summer indeed. Between rain and a couple of small injuries for me, it's not the best time to be a climbing bum. Thanks though. Lets hope for a sunny September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) Thanks guys... I'm sure there'd be many more similar big climbs completed if the weather had been decent. In my humble and unbiased opinion, Gunrunner is a REALLY fun climb, and worth doing if you are on the Ptarmigan Traverse or in the area. I attached a written topo for the route. I'd be curious if it gets climbed again, to see what someone else thought of the pitches, and if they went a different way at any point. 3784-Gunrunnertopo.doc Edited September 2, 2007 by Blake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Hey Blake: did climbing contact you or did you contact climbing? what about the alpinist newswire pieces? A guy from Alpinist contacted me, and after it ran on their web newswire, I contacted Climbing Mag. Dan and I made $50 off the photo, which was $25 less than the NPS ticket we recieved on our failed traverse attempt... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Trippett Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 which was $25 less than the NPS ticket we recieved on our failed traverse attempt... Goddamn Badge of Honour mate! Frame that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
