  1. You forgot to add the good old standard "flip a coin" model - heads it rains, tails its sunny. 50% success rate is only 10% less accurate than the supercomputers!
  2. Lighter, cheaper, more durable, cooler, and not from a company specializing in perma-recalls... sure sounds like "suck" to me alright
  3. there is a Friend that is the exact size a 2.5 Camalot would be
  4. But as access to some areas decreases access to other areas increases in BC... now the summit of Urquhart is 2 hrs from the car, there's a great new road to the east side of Gemse, they just finish a rebuild on the Settler road last weekend etc. etc.
  5. you have DSB and it is backing up into your leg.

    lazy idiots

    can deadlift like a mofo but can't walk 10 feet.
  7. Speaking of Tetris!
  8. i bet it's pretty hard to play Tetris on a slide rule alright
  9. ...and your heart in san francisco?
  10. lol Sabre is up to 5.6 on the "comprehensive online guidebook" that only lists 2 routes at L'worth. Creeping grade inflation made real!
  11. It takes 3 hours to hike the old road if you start at the point where Shannon Creek road branches off Stawamus-Indian FSR, ie. right at the start. Here is the beta: More like 5-6 pitches of class 3-4 bush ledges with short sections of easy rock in between
  12. Idle conjecture is the hamster that makes this website spin!

    A message for RumR

    It isnt going to rain or snow, it's gonna be daytime high of -2c with clear blue skies and FAT ALPINE ICE
  14. graphing calculator? oh c'mon go for some classic geek: slide rules!
  15. Also if you implement user pay and fee demo type stuff then the impetus is on managers to maximize user numbers in order to maximize revenue, which is a recipie for overcrowding.
  16. Maybe if they closed the valley off to car traffic at the tunnel and made you walk in there would be less tourists and hence more space for climbers.
  17. PiYP doesnt require you to belay with anchor below you though does it?

    this summer

    Green flash? You bastard! I've been looking for that for years!
  19. I have taken a 4 foot static fall on a daisy chain while aid climbing. The anchor was not a pair of fat bolts - it was a piton stack consisting of a Z-ton and two baby angles. I did not break my back or rupture any organs, or even bruise my side. I wouldn't recommend it though.
  20. Maybe it was the official 3rd party verifiers for Dan -.
  21. Dude that's alpine rock climbing in SW BC. Well, mostly. None of those things need get in the way of a good climb... mosquitoes die, wet rock dries, vegetation can be removed... By the by the 10th anniversary of the Edwards-Spagnut ascent is this month if I'm not mistaken.

    Big issues?

    Hotter = dryer= more frequent fires = the time between burn cycles gets shorter. Until the trees don't regrow and we are left wiuth cactus anyways I guess. Can you get a cactus fire?
