Dru= 42 rates Fern = 16 rates Capt = 54 rates They should also give a metric of rates per IP address to determine the Avatar quotient.

Why carry ice in when there is snow on top???? What the hell kinda stuff do they teach you at law school there anyways Ally mcBeal?

Three!

2! 3! 2! 3! Its like watching tennis or playing with a Yoyo.

That smell ain't patchouli, must be some other herbal essence.....

twight wore headphones and walkman soling on himalayas and didnt worry about not hearing rocks coming joe simpson wore headphones while trekking into base camp too i guess they werent worried about missing the natural beauties of nature and hearing the bird calls while hiking. personally fuck the headphones id rather have speakers to blast Ministry at everyone while top roping at Burgers and Fries 'DINGADINGALANGALANGADONGLINGLONG JESUS BUILT MY HOTROD'

Oh cmon DFA I gave YOU 3.

There is already a sport of creek bed and liquid waterfall climbing in Japan. They use those felt-soled boots like fishermen do for better grip on wet slimy rocks.

Looks like for a whole hour! Thank you to my fans OOOH down to 2 again thanks to DFA.

STRANGE PRODUCTIVITY INCREASE NOTED IN PNW - The Economist headline for tomorrow.

As many of you may know, bouldering uses a numerical system to rank the difficulty of each problem. The easiest problem is a V0 and the most difficult problem is a V15. The "V" system was developed by John Sherman and some of his friends. The "V" actually stands for "Verm" (John Sherman's nickname). But what exactly is a V0 and how does it differ from a V1. Well, in Climbing magazine from March 15, 1999, John Sherman explains what each "V" is: V0: A problem you wouldn't admit to doing no matter how cool it was. V1: A problem you would admit to doing, if it had loose holds, a death landing, and your partner backed off it. V2: A problem, if cool enough, that you would recommend to others to prove you're not a ratings snob. V3: A problem you ruthlessly wire and incorporate into your warm-up routine, in the hopes that visiting partners will struggle on it. V4: A problem that might give you trouble, but, "Hey, anything below V5 is so easy I can't tell the difference". V5: A problem, if you were to live in Boulder, Colorado, that you might actually flash. V6: A problem, if you were to live in Boulder, Colorado, that you would expect your girlfriend to flash. V7: A problem you fell on repeatedly, but, really, you could have flashed it. V8: A problem you religiously avoid, because you're "saving it for the flash". V9: A problem you have no chance at flashing. V10: A problem you knew you could have done, even though your spotter took 30 pounds off for you, so you counted it anyway. V11: A problem, if flashed, that you might get free shoes for, but only if you fax the mags this month. V12: A problem you would do if only your fingers were a bit smaller, your reach a bit longer, your spotter more attentive, the weather more amenable, your shoes not blown out, your elbow no so sore from training, the sun not in your eyes, and you didn't eat the funky take-out Chinese the night before. V13: A problem commensurate with your well-published abilities, that you deserve some credit for, even though you didn't do it, because as the mags reported, "It was too humid". V14: A problem only Fred Nicole could do, after you gave him the Beta. Well now you know what the "V" system actually means. So if you want to be able to climb at least V12, forward this e-mail to 0 of your friends. (As if anyone requiring spotters for a problem way out of their ability would have friends anyway). If your goal is to be able to climb between V7-V11, forward this e-mail to 1 friend. (You may know one other person who has as an ego as big as yours. So send him this e-mail and go spend weeks working on a problem you may never send). If your goal is to be able to climb between V4-V6, forward this e-mail to 2-5 friends. (Hey when you are hanging around V4-V6, you are bound to meet people). If your goal is to be able to climb between V1-V3, forward this e-mail to as many people as you want. (Climbing is fun, life is fun, enjoy it. With this attitude, there is no limit on how many people you will be able to send this e-mail to).

The rule at Vantage is : if you dont like scary, death choss, dont go to Vantage.

BOOFORD, WHERE'S MA SQUIRREL PIE FLAYVUH POWUH BAW?

When I went climbing in J Tree I was surprised by the relative # of black climbers there were there because you hardly ever see pictures of blacks cranking in the mags aside from Ed February and Mike Freeman. Oh, and Trevor Messiah from Britain. How come white trash are underrepresented in climbing? I would guess the same reasons namely different socioeconomic background and lack of a group of similar ethnic climbers of older age to act as known mentors? Im not talking about top roping with moms laundry line either.

Maybe you cant but it doesnt mean that anyone cant. You can eyeball the terrain above and check amount of bare ground visible from several points along the road. You can drive up the Shalath road to assess similar conditions on a nearby ridge crest. Loren you are digging yourself a hole and I dont mean a Rutschblock.

I went with a guy who is a pro patroller and he looked up the gully at the huge amount of bare rock and tree sticking out above the gully and pronounced the risk low. in fact the whole thing had slid 5-7 days earlier and snow above was minimal new accumulation. other than bringing your own pro i dont know what method to use except hiring a helicopter and making bombing runs first. however my point was just cause you read on www.avalanche.ca that avvy conditions are high (and i bet they are considerable or ower there right now) or some guy in the bar or online says they are high, does not mean they necessarily are on site. or it could say things are low and a freak storm could have dumped 10 inches of killer pow right above the last belay DEATH FROM ABOVE!!!!!
