  2. Going by the size of the talus pile below the crags, and their degree of vegetativeness, the rock MAY be fairly solid.

Isn't this a love song Bill Clinton wrote to Monica Lewinsky in the early 90's. Yeah, there was a saxophone solo in there somewhere. Maybe not when the next lyrics are First the President then his wife Throw em from the ramparts and take their lives COUP D'ETAT Ooops I gave it away. Circle Jerks.
  7. In ancient Rome There was a poem About a dog Who found two bones He picked up one He licked the other He ran in circles And he dropped dead

  9. I read in Sci American a few months back a piece on circadian rhythms which points out that the human body is primed to defecate at the equivalent of 8 AM every morning so maybe the coffee thing is a coincidence.
  10. Golite = junk with lifespan of mayfly. Buy only if you have easily disposable $$ cause you will be buying a new one next season.

The completeness is astounding. here are a couple of fun phrases you can look for when you are reading through the guide "Obvious descent gully" "Imitate a gorilla through the bushes" "One bolt was used for safety. 4th class" "Class 4 with minor aid" "Here is a classic bivouac, complete with running water and trophy-sized rodents" "The name comes from an incident on the first ascent, when a rock was dislodged and crushed a Cadillac parked below, causing consternation among onlookers" "the approach will be a classic Cascades bush thrash if snow is not present"
  13. have them set up the rap device above yours on the rope before you start rapping so you know its set up properly. if they stay clipped to the anchor while you rap there should not be any uncomfortable forces on them while you rap.
  14. teach them that the best option is always to walk off.

    Capt how dare you contradict me Dont you know I am the walking guidebook Actually I believe that route is the Triple Couloirs according to Alex & Jason's guidebook
  16. id way rather have the backup above the rap device than below as it is pretty hard to pass the knot with your backup below your rap device.

For an offwidth. Or are you referring to the bolted face pitch the OW climber gets his sport climbing buddy to lead to get him to the offwidth?
  22. quote: Originally posted by ryland moore: Glacial seds actually make me regular in the mountains! Usually on longer climbs (more than a week) I can't shit like I do sittin' at home with a dip in and reading a mag. So, the glacial seds act like my nicotine fix in the mornin to get my bowels a movin' (Too much detail?) I guess you dont take coffee into the mountains?
  23. "Gets me to the church on time, yeah" you BASTARD now I got 80s tunes stuck in my head!
  24. quote: Originally posted by Greg W: Name it: "I know when to go out/When to stay in/Get things done..." I always thought it was "I want to go out/But I want to stay in". Have you got the lyrics sheet there?
