Frosty the climber was a jolly happy soul,
With a BD axe and a mushroom nose
And two eyes made out of bolts (hangers).
Frosty the climber is a fairy tale, they say,
He was made of snow but the children Know
how he came to life one day.

There must have been some magic in that
Old petzl helmet they found.
For when they placed it on his head
He began to send some routes.

Zekester,

I'm coming to AZ to climb/snowboard descend Humphrey's Peak and/or Agassiz near Flagstaff. I'll be there Friday till 24th. Jtree Dec 24-30, then back to AZ for New Years fun. I suggest you make your plans align with mine, for your own good. Otherwise Mrs. Zeke and I are going out without you!

Jewedlawitup!

Hmmm... gonna have to run those by the Mrs.. She 'spects I should be hangin' with her fam during much of that time. Sounds sweet though. I'm going to El Potrero Chico for a while in January!

I could maybe do 28th-30th with ya in Jtree cuz we're watching our bloodsport on the pay-per-view on the 27th.

The first 6 times I went to JT to climb, it snowed 5 of them (well, counting the first time, Jan 1 or 2, 1969 when we got snowed out of Tahquitz and went to JT knowing there were rocks but zero else). So, despite that it's a genuine desert, it's a fairly snowy place.
