I once heard a Rockies climber define "scrambling" as a contraction of "Scree Rambling".

How do you define scrambling? Talus hiking with $300 trekking poles or Peter Croft doing the Stuart traverse or somewhere in between?

The only historic messages allowed should be the ones that say "I AM NEAT AND COOL" spray painted on the base of the rock, and Kokopelli smokin a bong of course.

Stefan - How many of your trip reports have been deleted Personally I totally disagree. If you want no-reply TRs then post on summitpose or nwta. If there wrre no replies to TRs there wouldnt have been Muir on Saturday or the current West Ridge of Prussik thread and Scot'teryx would never know he was gaining acceptance as he learns to climb more and chestbeat less.

Starting at Prussik Peak and heading East along the ridge crest almost guarantees you will summit on Temple sooner or later. No risk of "missing the correct peak" then.

If you carve on the rock at frenchaman's coulee the rock piece with the carving will flake off by next week anyways right Mayb the carving should be on an already exfoliated chunk likethat Rodchester pic of the big piece with the bolt and quickdraw attached.

Hip belay weighs less than either Reverso or Plaquette and if you have 3 arms you can belay 2 seconds at once with it

Actually I thought it looked more like the Maakies boat with Drinky Crow sitting in front and Uncle Gabby in the back with his hat on. www.maakies.com

It is NOT a road - it is a gravel covered gas pipeline that you coincidentally can drive on top of.

Yeah eventually you end up with a huge pile of junk emblazoned with names etc like below K2, Everest, The Eiger, Rainier and Si. [ 10-08-2002, 01:06 PM: Message edited by: Dru ]

Anybody done it or know anyone who has done it. I wouldn't mind some route info.

Between attacks of goats thirsty for your pee, and s trying to get your it is a wonder campers ever get to sleep up there at all!!

Some people have friends willing to make the effort. Others have friends content to remember them without the plaques and stuff. To each their own. Its not like the dead person cares one way or other.
