Yahoo! It's Friday! I'm in Cincinnati, and it is pouring like crazy here. I'd love to get down to the gorge Saturday & maybe Sunday as well. Is it soaking wet from all the rain? Does anyone know how conditions are at fortress wall?

have not been to the red. but lex got a good drenching. fortress is known to be the rainy day trad crag so i bet lizards will be dry fo-sho. snake was still slippery last weekend and i don't recall any big rain storms...

so i hope that was vague enough and confusing enough. sorry i couldn't be more specific.

It's Saturday afternoon right now if anyone cares and we (RRO) just took a guided group out to Fortress for the day and pretty much everything is wet, including American Wall/Crack. Calypso II, III, and Where Lizards Dare was about the only thing dry there today

I think a lot of rock was wet today. I heard Torrent was wet and there were just a few cars at Roadside. We went to the Motherlode and everything right of Chainsaw was wet. The Stain wall was dry. Manky but dry.

DAMNIT!!!!

Oh well...I'm still coming.

It's raining again, but only a little bit. Good thing is it didn't rain last night. I'm sure a lot of places will be wet. I'm going to Muir, we'll see how that is.

I wish I hadn't. It was miserable out yesterday.

A day outside climbing in the rain is still better than any day indoors...

The weather was screwey, but I had a lot of fun yesterday. I didn't climb worth a crap, but the three lovely ladies I was climbing with climbed really well though. It went from DAMN gooey, to boiling hot, to both. My damn hands got a workout in spite of it and I ALMOST evened out my farmer's tan.
