| So I had my fried egg and sausage breakfast Boissant sandwich at Bagels+ and then drove over to the North End of Cathedral this morning. I was a bit surprised to see that much of the ice that had slid down from the slab several days ago was still there at the bottom! This, in spite of a bunch of 60+ degree days, followed by some pretty amazing torrential rains over the past few daze. I normally don't put videos directly on the NEClimbs.com web site, but I thought you might find these interesting. The rain one is from Tuesday and the ice from Thursday.

| AVALANCHE DREAMS: A Memoir of Skiing, Climbing and Life |
 |
| Louis Dawson describes his life in six sections with each one representing a different era of his life. The forty-three short chapters flow smoothly and keep the reader wanting to explore one more episode at each reading. |
| I was once bouldering in solitude in the Needles, when a young female walked up and introduced herself and asked who I was. I told her and continued bouldering. She turned and walked away after a few minutes, saying over her shoulder: 'you can't be John Gill. He climbs much better than that'. |

BEWARE! That ice above the North End is just waiting to come down.
