you're not going to have any luck out west. i was planning a trip in california this weekend, and that got called off. it looks like the whole west coast and then some is going to be getting this storm.

Just go climbing at the black cliffs. It never rains here. Really, it is suppose to rain a couple times this week and it has not yet.

Look, the Black Cliffs are 20 minutes from town and the approach takes less than 10 minutes. You probably can get a good session in before the rain hits.

thanks for the suggestions. really had the itch to get out of town for the weekend. we are going to try the ampitheater cave at riggins, hopefully it will stay dry. no seepage? if it rains we will just scope things out, i hear there is some DWS on the river there?!?!?! I appreciate the responses.

The Cave stays dry in the rain, though the approach sucks when it's muddy.
