USA http://www.terragalleria.com/mountain/mountain-image.icec3247.html icec3249 Bridge River area, near Lilloet. The line on the left is The Gift, one of the harder additions to the area, first climbed during Christmas 95. The line on the right, even more obvious and dramatic (but clearly not as fat) was revealed to me by Eric Hirst through e-mail. Lilloet, British Columbia, Canada http://www.terragalleria.com/mountain/mountain-image.icec3249.html icec3250 This line has two parts quite distinct in character: the first includes a pitch whose base looked very sketchy from the road, and the chimney, of which the inside was not visible. The second is the partially free-standing huge column, which is visibly very steep, sustained, and complex. Lilloet, British Columbia, Canada http://www.terragalleria.com/mountain/mountain-image.icec3250.html icec3251 The first pitch (thin ice crux, WI5+ R) was one of the scariest I have ever climbed. Althought it at first didn't appear to be possible because the main pillar was unstable, it went on the thin ribbon on the right. Lilloet, British Columbia, Canada http://www.terragalleria.com/mountain/mountain-image.icec3251.html icec3252 Lee was going to lead successfully the chimney, using one Camalot and one piton to clear a chockstone by an aid move.

Lilloet, British Columbia, Canada http://www.terragalleria.com/mountain/mountain-image.icec3259.html icec3260 Tuan starts the fifth pitch. Lilloet, British Columbia, Canada http://www.terragalleria.com/mountain/mountain-image.icec3260.html icec3261 The route had apparently stirred the interest of a number of locals, but no one had had the nerve and persistence to make a serious attempt. On the second attempt, the route appeared even less in, in contrast with the nearby Gift , still fat with ice. This was the last opportunity of the season. Starting to climb at 8am, we had managed to snatch the route from the gods who guard improbable ascents. Like thieves, we had finished under cover of darkness. But as if those gods had summoned the police, a witness mistakenly thought we were in trouble, and Mounties arrived on the scene at the end of an almost 24 hour day of effort. The new route, put up by a pair of transplanted Californians, is called The Theft, V 6R..
