Climb Stuff at Mt Hood, Oregon (and float in the lake afterwards)


Details
The overall plan: To head down into Oregon and visit the awesome Trillium Crag next to a spectacular lake in the shadow of Mt Hood.
Top rope or lead. Beginners, intermediate, advanced, all are welcome whether you've been outdoors before or not.
Friday
I’m going to head up Friday at noon to get the driving out of the way, dodge traffic and get set up at the campsite. I have a spot at Riley Campground. You can reserve a spot here…

(just enter the length of your car for the trailer section)
Alternatively, there’s McNeil, and Lost Creek nearby, and Devils Half Acre, Devils Meadow, Frog Lake, Still Creek, Tollgate all within 30 minutes of Trillium
Saturday
Off to Trillium Lake which I’ve explored a couple of times and have been cataloguing for the second edition of my book…

The climbing is all sport and very fun.
2 x 5.4, 1 x 5.6, 2 x 5.7, 4 x 5.8, 1 x 5.9, 2 x 10a, 3 x 10b, 3 x 10c, 1 x 10d
And afterwards we can jump in the lake for a nice cool float and chill.
Saturday Night
Feasting and festivities will then follow. Wraptitude in Zigzag is rather awesome.
Sunday
French's Dome for a few climbs before heading home

Communications
I'll email attendees with my number just in case. At the crags look for the 'Union Jack' painted climbing helmet or cowboy hat and cammo trousers.
Stuff to Bring
Essentials: Harness, shoes, water, sunblock, lunch. Helmets are seriously recommended.
Would be handy if you have them: Rope, quickdrawers, ATC/grigri, personal anchor, cams, chalk, anchors, slings and such.
Camping: Tent, food, sleeping bag.
