I use this version of the precipitation guage, so you can see what has happened when.

I think maybe a "Sticky" should have Pinnacles spelled correctly.

mudworm · « **Reply #4 on:** January 06, 2007, 05:27:52 AM »

Nice catch.

I suggested to him make another Sticky with the title "Pinnicles, that's I in Pinnacles." But he talked about deleting this thread and migrating its content into a new correctly-spelled one. That's like cheating.

mungeclimber · « **Reply #5 on:** January 06, 2007, 02:17:24 PM »

hey, whatever works. I'd say create a page of content for Pinnacles stuff on the mudncurd website.

Tonight, Saturday night, Sunday night...

13 degrees, 14 degrees, 19 degrees...

Have fun.

you could break a nipple off in that kind of weather, bbbbbbrrrrrrrrrr

Jody Langford · « **Reply #8 on:** January 12, 2007, 07:58:59 PM »

LOL! Might be a good day to do "Nipple Jam".

Right now where I live it is already 32.7 at 1958 hours. Should hit about 15 for us and I live just SW of Paso Robles.

mungeclimber · « **Reply #9 on:** January 12, 2007, 11:05:15 PM »

no doubt! hah!

14.5 was my low in Templeton this morning.

In Morro Bay, it was so cold that as the backwaters of the estuary receded with the tide going out it left a solid sheet of ice.

BTW, I free-soloed Nipple Jam(first pitch) when I was 9. Didn't know I could die if I fell.

mungeclimber · « **Reply #11 on:** January 13, 2007, 07:17:06 PM »

probably a record for youngest solo of that route.

My favorite weather link from the NPS weather station...

http://www.met.utah.edu/cgi-bin/roman/meso_base.cgi?stn=PCLC1

I also use wunderground.com and search the 95043 zip code. Scrolling down past the regular forecast, you'll find the temps and probability of precip specifically for Pinn. Very accurate.

Thanks Brett. I have updated the list of links in the sticky post. Good info!

And welcome to the Forum!

This just went live last week- real time weather data from the NPS weather station:

http://weather.weatherbug.com/CA/Paicines-weather.html?zcode=z6169&stat=PCNNS

This weather station is similar to the www.met.utah.edu link mentioned previously. Both are located on the east side in the hills a bit west of the campground. The station feeding information to this new link is managed by the NPS, the other is managed cooperatively and primarily for wildland fire use.

Why check. It never rains at the Pinnacles. Right??

mungeclimber · « **Reply #16 on:** October 01, 2009, 03:42:46 PM »

nice Brett, thx for that!

mudworm · « **Reply #17 on:** November 24, 2009, 11:13:40 AM »

I have added the Climbers' Log to Pinnacles NM to the sticky post.

Brett · « **Reply #18 on:** May 19, 2010, 09:12:47 AM »

The eastside campground link at the beginning of this post has been outdated for a while now. Here's the new link for reservations:

Hi Brett, Thanks very much for the heads up.
