  3. But it's a CLIMBERS CARNIVAL! Maybe you can be the official stick clipper for the speed climbing contest!
  4. I seem to recall a K value for some deep granite in the Canadian Shield, being considered for Yucca Mtn style nuclear waste disposal, of 10^-23.... I don't have my Freeze and Cherry here to check though
  5. I hear they are having a carnival there on Labor Day. You could volunteer. Maybe they need an extra clown!

    Aurora Alert

    the sunspots are mellowing out so no big auroras forecast, but the perseids should peak aug 11 and 12. moon will be low in or out of sky, and there's a rarely seen extra group of meteors this year that earth hasn't passed through since the 1860's that should add a few hits per hour. so keep watching the skies!
  16. rockfax.com has lotsa Spain guidebooks and online info in english. even if it is British english, blimey!
  17. well - it's like hydraulic conductivity. we think of unfractured granite as impermeable but really it just conducts water at a rate 1X10^8 to 10^20 times slower than a pourous sandstone....
  18. the difference between hard and soft rock is not that soft rock is damaged by brushing when soft rock isn't - soft rock is just damaged much more quickly and observably than hard rock by brushing.
  19. except the DIY lillooet ice fest
  20. der teufel ist gefallen!
  21. my nozone has fewer holes and tougher fabric than my 12 year old bivi sac
  22. malcolm smith on "dreamtime": "That the holds are different [now and when Fred climbed it, V14 now V15 then] is not due to chipping but due to hundreds of attempts and brushings resulting in organic change over time" In other words brushing changes and mostly improves small holds. Microchipping or Nanochipping
  23. bill it had nothing to do with hello kitty vibrators it just took you to this site with a pic of a cat with epilepsy-inducing flashing eyes!
