They have a model hanging in the Royal BC Museum. Yoiks! For a peaceful little squid it sure looks like a bat-winged vampire all right. Whereas the snafflehound, looks harmless and innocent, but..................

When were those past days, 1) when some Americans owned others, 2) When Abby Hoffman was beaten for wearing the American flag, 3) when anti-Communist witchhunts forced many Americans to leave their own country and live in Europe, 4) when disco was king and everybody wanted to be Travolta?

Bust out the drill & bolt kit and add a bunch of intermediate anchors. Retrosaurus can remove them later

Mmmmm guacamole eggnog. Actually, a friend of mine introduced me to avocado milkshakes & smoothies by ordering us 2 at a Vietnamese restaurant. I though they would be rude, and only started drinking to humor him, but they ROCK. Avocado is the worlds most nutritious fruit. Has both fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. MMMMMMMMM.

There is no "us". Just look at Sean Penn.

The knot that stays taut under weight then comes free when it is unweighted and you shake it... you think UIAA approves that one? In Lambone's case I think it would be better to use the bodyweight break method: tie the rope end to the anchors with a little something that will break when it is weighted with 2x bodyweight. each of you raps in turn (=bodyweight only) then at the station you set up a pulley on the other end and pull until the top anchor breaks and the rope end drops down to you

Iain, do you mean because they grew dope, held slaves, or organized an armed revolt against their then-current government?

When Bruce Hendricks soloed Supercouloir on Deltaform, he dropped one of his plastic boots at the bivi and finished that route off with "a Superfang on 6 pairs of wool socks" on one foot. My understanding of UK sock use was that it was done, not on ice, but on wet rock climbs where nailed boots or tennis shoes gave no grip. Nowadays the Japanese make special felt-soled shoes like fishermen use specifically for climbing wet rock during summer waterfall ascents.

Went exploring near the Fraser River in another installment of the Quest For the Unknown Super crag Area. Saw no real crags but spent 2 hours bushwacking and hiking along railway tracks, lots of rain, mud and quite a bit of ghost fish (good phrase) and a few of these plus a blue heron or two.

Angle piton on a locker as a single-bar brake bar substitute, maybe? I used this set up once when i forgot other rappel gear and it was extremely low-friction so might work well on a taut fixed rope? In your scenario though, its probably better just to down prussik. Except: you probably used your prussiks to escape the belay, so what do you do then??? Hopefully you have enough slings & stuff....
