I swear to you. It's definitely palmer-house. It's in the Editor's Note of the new Rock and Ice paradise edition. Don't get me wrong I can't find the information anywhere!

Rock and Ice has been criticized before for some of their articles. I think this may be a typo.

Or it could have something to to with Joel Palmer, who climbed Mt. Hood in the middle of winter in moccasins (brrrr).

From what I've seen in my searches, I'm leaning towards the former.

I've heard of climbers who "power-house" through a climb - using strength instead of technique to get through the crux or a series of difficult moves. Could that be it?

Good Luck

99% sure you're thinking of "power- house".
