RuMR Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 excuse my french...but fuck exit 38, its a complete waste of time...plus its no fun listening to that blasted highway... 32 or index... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinfox Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 My vote is the south face of Prusik. Justin can carry the keg, I'll carry the cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlpineK Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Jeff H and I walked past Gritstone the other day, and I must say it's the stupidist boulder with bolts I've seen in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Gritscone DOES have an 11a and an 11d. V2 & V3 at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken4ord Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Index, is my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_Puget Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Index will suck. The fair traffic might make it impossible to do much climbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willstrickland Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Index rocks your dome, but in the interest of traffic/beer/variety of difficulty/time to climb/etc I vote 32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinfox Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Hey RUMR, I'll set up a top rope on Reptiles and Amphetamines for you. It'll be a little pumpy for a newbie, but I bet you can hack it. Maybe one of you sprot-climbin' muscle monkeys will set up some TRs on some 11+ type stuff for me? I still think Index would be better: short approach for easy beer carrying, opportunity for newbie sportos to try some REAL climbing , and... in the words of Mr. Szyjazipperheadowski, "IT'S INDEX!!!" Fair traffic would suck though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashw_justin Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I can put a rope on Aborigine, is that 11-enough? Speaking of 32 I was there the other day and this guy and his girlfriend(?) come up, and then it's "so which one of these climbs is Chronic?" ...

SnowByrd Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Jeff H and I walked past Gritstone the other day, and I must say it's the stupidist boulder with bolts I've seen in a while. How many times did u walk past it looking for Gun Show? 2 or 3? Getting lost can make a person bitter...but then agian, I'm a totall newbie and Gritscone has a couple of climbs I haven't done yet. I'm sure its like an anthill to everyone else. Exit 32 is fun as well....for the newbies, that is. Now that I've gone to 11worth, I see just how safe Exit 32 and 38 are....but that doesn't mean it still can't be challenging...at least ot us Newbies. U guys have fun at Index and be sure to post lots of Pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
