Inherently Outlandish Email List

March 7th, 2006 osgumero

On Saturday I went ice climbing with Brenton and Dr. Graham and Brenton and I came to the conclusion that we need to get out  and climb a lot more.  So, I’m helping Brenton start an email list for anybody interested in getting out.  I know it can be frustrating for somebody that wants to do something and can’t find anybody else to do it with.
To quote Brenton:

“This is an email group that I am starting to try to find more and new partners for alpine climbs and some backcountry snowboarding/splitboarding/skiing during the next year. I get out twice a week on average and most of my friends aren’t interested in going that often. I will most likely send an email out weekly. So if you are interested in getting out for a variety of things, sign up under what you are interested in below (that way I don’t spam you with emails about ice climbing trips when all you want to do is ski in the BC). Just put your email down and your name if you want. I can’t attend the OAC meetings regularly because I work nights, so my intent is to just find other ways to find people who want to climb. If you want to organize trips and you can’t do it through OAC for some reason, you can contact me and I’ll send out a notice to the group as well.

Backcountry Skiing (splitboard, AT/tele skis or snowshoes required-avalanche gear preferred but not essential for all trips)

Ice Climbing and Rock Climbing (tools, crampons, harness required for ice, harness and shoes required for rock—all group gear provided)

Easier Alpine Climbs (Cascade Peak, Provo Peak, non-technical climbs—variety of gear required, but suitable for absolute beginners to mountaineering. Will take place in spring and summer, essentially partially guided climbs I have done before)

Moderate and Harder Alpine Climbs (technical rock, easy-moderate ice, steep snow climbs—N Ridge Pfeifferhorn, etc. Harness, axe, crampons, all gear required. Rope/pro/group gear provided)”

Anybody interested can sign up by emailing Brenton at fowweezer@yahoo.com or myself at osgumero@yahoo.com
