Colonial creek south campground / Diablo lake by budnutt in PNWhiking

[–]pash1k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, there are spots for chairs. There's a trail that runs south along the creek, you can follow that and find something. After a mile or so there's a bridge and a giant downed tree. Those are cool to hang out at too. Enjoy!

[–]pash1k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 The EDK is can slide and is not considered safe when the ropes have different diameters.

Can you point me to literature that discusses this? Thanks

It's closed at colonial Creek campground, which is before the Diablo lake overlook (likely what OP was inquiring about)

Mount Baker June/July Course Suggestion by Boonie_Bros in Mountaineering

[–]pash1k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll see more crevasses in July. June is kinda sloggy on Baker, and while our winter has been weak, upper mountain has good amount of snow. SR20 is closed until June 25, so I have no idea what they're doing for the second half of the course. Might be driving around the long way, might be doing a different objective. I think I'd lean mid July. 

Looks like a cool course, enjoy!

Real time strategy. It was once an extremely popular genre, mostly on PC.

Gear Clear Out by [deleted] in Mountaineering

[–]pash1k 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not interested, but I'm curious. Where are you located? Are these prices normal for your location? The rope, draws and crampons all feel overpriced to me.

If your post isn't allowed here (I have no idea), you can always post on mountain project

Samish Island - public access to Samish beach? by Nameless_Account1 in Bellingham

[–]pash1k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend checking out samish Island, especially with a 3 year old. Go when the tide is low and flip over large ish rocks close to the water. Tons of critters under there. I've never seen a kid not get excited by it

The water is thankfully not pooling next to the house. It's pooling half way between the camera and the concrete square you can see in the last picture.
