We finally had a chance to check out Frenchman Coulee in central WA, a.k.a. Vantage . Frenchman has many hundreds of routes– trad, sport, mostly single pitch with easy approaches. It never rains there except when I show up. Other than a Washington DNR Discover Pass, camping is free and crag dog friendly. My impression: Excellent winter cragging– highly recommended.
