Sometime around 1976 or 1977, Jonathan Waterman, and I went into Mount Katahdin with hopes of climbing a new route in the North Basin. Despite the rumors the drips of ice on that big wall came nowhere near the ground. As a consolation prize, in bitter cold conditions (air temp below -25 degrees F, not to mention the wind), we did an early repeat of the Cilley-Barber route.
