Well, I've never done a woman's clinic, but I think any of the "Intro" classes would be fine. Learn the basics, get some practice on safe climbs, and so forth.

Be sure to hook up with the rest of us. We promise that we'll turn you to the Dark Side of Debauchery and Bad Behavior.

My GF will be taking the "easy ice for women" if you feel more comfy around other ladies, thats probably your best best. Theres also a "beginner ice" class thats being taught at the new kids area so I suspect that will be waay easy. these are coed though.

As Reno mentioned, get together with the rest of us for the important, after dark clinics. You won't have to pay, but it'll cost yaCrazy

every year i take the "ice for easy women" clinic. hasn't failed me yet.Cool

I bet you follow that up with a yoga class, eh? the female:male ratio is pretty good there, too.

as for asking mr8615 to take off his clothes... is that a good thing, or a bad thing?

Love to meet up with you guys, when you get around to making that happen, count me in!

I was going to bring that up- that place ranks high on my list of Hot Springs in Paradise. I've been scheming about a side trip, time permitting. Does it get busy during the Ice Fest?

I've got one of them black plastic spider rings from the vending machine outside Wal-Mart. It ain't much, but it comes from the heart.

The girls to guys ratio never seems to be a big deal, for the girls!!! Haha. Seriously though... Wednesday night cannot come soon enough. I'm so excited to see you all, some again, some for the first time. Bring on the Don Julio '42! Tai, your first shot's on me, I miss you buddy.

Wait... I'm not bringing any money this year, I'm hoping to umm, 'rent' myself out just enough to pay for the tequila. Hasn't worked yet, but I'm hopeful.

On one hand, I'm very happy to hear this, and look forward to good times climbing ice with the other Jeff B from the RC.com group.

On the other hand, I'm still recovering from all the tequila at the Shelf Road Shindig, and I can already hear my liver crying from the abuse it's going to take in a couple months.

Oh, the dichotomy. What to do, what to do?

(It'll be good to see ya, Cologman. Where ya stayin'?)

Well, I wouldn't say that, exactly....

Laphroig is a little too smokey-peaty for my tastes. So I will bring along something more to the Geogoddess's liking, depending on what I can find at our lame-o liquor stores before the Event.

Costco in Nevada has huge party-size jugs of Patron
