    But jarry is not a surrealist, he is a pataphysicist!

    fat chicks . . .

  4. I am waiting for some chick to openly marry multiple husbands cause I got a great name for her new religion. She can call it the "More-man Church"
  5. legal opinion in Canada is that polygamism is freedom of religion under the Charter of Rights. leading many Mormon polygs to move to Creston BC. a little chunk of Utah without the desert!
  6. ignorant sumbitch. i'm devoted to being unmarried, that does not necessarily mean single. BUT what is wrong with what erik said? i don't need a piece of paper and a ceremony but some people like that stuff. here is what is wrong with what erik said: "two people" your monogamist chauvinism is oppressing me!
  7. "It's not booty - some woman in a lake gave me this cam!"
  8. oh shit, too late, i confused EXTREMOMTNDUDE with EXTREME ALPINISM
  9. 1) the route is as long as Grandwall to Bellygood plus Upper Black Dyke plus a pitch. sounds like 14 pitches to me? 2) Grand Wall is 450m high. But this route starts lower than grand cause Dihedrals begin at a lower elevation. 14X30 = 420, the average pitch length is thus calculated to be slightly longer than a half rope length to make it up the wall.... 3) rather than establishing a pitch in the middle of wherever when you run out of rope is it not better to use a natural no hands rest or ledge? even if it means your pitch is only 30 or 40 m long? 4) if you want full rope stretchers PP maybe you could go to the mountains where simulclimbing may be required regularily between belays? i seem to recall Fern leading a number of 75m+ long pitches on Mt Athelstan a few years ago not testy just wondering new MY PITCH IS LONGER THAN YOURS FORUM 3)
  10. I think the DMMs are one digit higher, so a 3 DMM is the same as a 2 Camalot. Could be wrong though. no you are right Jon, but a CAMALOT is not a Friend, DMM or Clog or HB!!!!!!!!
  11. well get with the program and get a special plastic screw racking biner thingy then! orget some DMM notchless wiregate for racking stoppers! i mean really

    look out. 2 of my friends died when i read that book
  13. dont confuse mountaineering with Mountaineers or Mountaineering Freedom Of The Hillz with Extreme Alpinism should this go in the new EXTREEEEEME forum?
  14. PP might want to go climb the route before he discusses the pitch lengths.
  15. my limited experience with Trango Flexcams is that they walk at the drop of a hat
  16. FYI see here
  17. Japanese Alps.... Southern Alps in New Zealand..... Conrad Kain called the Rocky + Columbia Mts the Canadian Alps.... there is also a range of mountains on the Moon named the Alps. Lots of FA potential I bet. Oxygenless would be tough.
  18. Pup Buttress is not above treeline but it's pretty alpine. Ditto Index pks I bet.
  19. ditto HBs. rock empire does give good value but not weight. dmms is pretty good for alpine weight wise. i mean i have camalots in bigger sizes but if i was gonna buy a whole rack right now i probably would get tech friends in the 2.5 and up and dmm in the smaller sizes
  20. Tex was AIDING monkey space

    I heard Distel32 is reading "Hairy Spotter and the Full Loss Of Her Stone" right now
  22. On Everest, all the other gapers on the summit could hear you scream.... if you only took your stupid oxygen mask off... and if that damn Toyota wasn't revving its motor....

    Criminey!!

    now if they could make a SUV that turns into a snowmobile everyone could have their own personal chairlift!!!!
  24. there are a lot of dumb asses walking around today making a good case for retroactive abortion
  25. there are a lot of adventure cragging routes in the more brushy parts of Squamish Chief etc..... Fern's sent most of em....
