Looks like rain today. Temps just above freezing. Overcast. Roads are dry. Parking lots and gravel roads are sloppy still. Most of the snow is gone. Most of the Ice has fallen but still be aware.

Thanks for the heads up. I really appreciate the continual updating in this thread. It's really making my life easier in planning this trip.

Yesterday was awesome. It felt like spring! I fact it was so good We opened all the widows and shut down the heat(first time in a couple months!) I didn't even get on the computer!
Today is 42 and rainy. We had a lot of melt-off yesterday and the result is sloppy gravel roads and parking lots. Other than that, its GAME ON!

4 out of the 5 walls we went to today were sweaty and drippy. Amazingly, we started and ended the day at Bruise Bros, and it was dry all day. We managed to get a bunch of (short) pitches in. Way better than just sitting on my couch...

I tore my a2 up or I'd be out there with ya! Today was extra-special wet. Got in a bunch of explorin'. You should see the walls I saw today! I found out where old man dave has been bolting. I'd say I pretty much got the place wired. :mrgreen:
