If any one is interested the Widows Tears is so full and frozen from the record rainfall and now the cold temps we have in the valley.

I have never seen it so fully frozen, will try to get a pic tomorrow.

Fattrad would be interested, cuz he's got some "sharp x-15's and some curved BD thingy."

but I've heard what you really need is a VERY fast car...

don't think my car qualifies, but tempted to totter over there in my chrome-plated walker just to gaze at it in awestruck lust...

The web cams make the Valley look like an ice climbing paradise right now, but I can't imagine WT being anything but hair-raising ever. It's hard to believe it's been over thirty years since you and Chappy did it, Kevin.

Where's Waugh when you need him? Or Jack Roberts? I bet I could get Waugh to haul me up that thing!

It looks sooooo thick that I am actually considering how to get there and with whom...
