Ray is posting pix on www.bivouac.com so Y'all can check them out there. Hint try the "what's New" page if you don't know where to look or "Authors" then "Ray Borbon".

Thx Lowell. Also anybody knowing the two people in yellow clothes let them know I have a bunch of pictures with them in, that I can email them if they are interested.

Canadian wood exports to the US are down 50% and many mills are closing here since the US brought in softwood duties in May. thank your lumber lobby. So much for free trade right, its great when you benefit from it but when another country benefits from it, time to ditch it? eat a beaver, save a tree. Its elementary!

Big pointy one on the right is Tower, right? And the one left of that is Golden Horn, and the one in the center distance is Jack? So, what is the pointed one left of Jack, and what is the one right of Tower?

looks like your feminine side just got PAGE TOP BEEYOOTCH!!!

Ya, and if you sneeze while holding your nostrils shut, it is possible to blow your brains out your ears! NO, really

Another good 10a at Smoke Bluffs is Nubile Woman. It is pretty short and was my first 10a lead I believe. Take some RPs for the last few moves, which are (you guessed it) the CRUX! Also, Fist at Murrin is good , crux is a boulder start again then solid 5.9 which always reminds me a bit of the Outer Space crux (ie you are climbing up a diagonal crack which you have your feet in and you have to switch to hand traversing it as you move right around a little bulgy roof thing) Actually I did OS so long ago I cant even remember if the crux is really like that or not.

Yeah but our beer wins all the awards, try some Unibroue sometime. As for the Queen We Will We Will Rock You!!! Don't you guys have a King, George II???

What keeps the CNN's of the world from having a sigificantly louder voice, if everyone is supposed to be equal? Why do they get to disseminate whatever "news" they wish on candidates without any scrutiny to how "loud" they are? There should be no restrictions on campaign financing whatsoever, save prohibitions against fraud and bribery. Well said. Further, remember all the talk by candidates about CFR being protection against illegal use of funding? So, basically the politicians are saying they can't be trusted with money? What's that all about? Greg W Shit man, you think politicians CAN be trusted with money? Who else - CEOs????

Flying Circus is a slick piece of dung. It used to be good 10 yrs ago but took too much beating from endless top ropes. On the other hand "Neat & Cool" itself is a wicked 10a but maybe not good for breaking into the grade as people seem to take ugly groundfalls on it more than about any other climb at Squamish. I remember when it had 4 fixed pins, over the years they've all come out as people fell on them oops! Now just nuts and cams And Talking Holds is good... short overhanging perfect hands 10a. Also Jabberwocky, crux is boulder problemy start then 5.9 fingers above.

lamepic?

I think it's cool that in Ray's Route description he noted that "A piton was used for safety" LAFF!

Yeah and look at deKlerk...he's a frickin' BASE JUMPER TOO

Angel Crack -Castle Rock Delerium Tremens - Smith Meat Grinder - Alphabet Rock, icicle Exasperator p1 - Squamish base of the Grand Seasoned in the Sun - ditto The Zip - Squamish Smoke Bluffs Gruff in the Smith Gorge is a good one if Cruel Sis is busy. Ditto Wildfire. Grassy Glades at Skaha. Nothing at Index cause it always rains there.

As for the traverse to the cave we had Friends and a doubleset of TCUs, not Camalots, so you can put in the #2.5 and #3 Friend on that traverse. Maybe it was because i was seconding but i found it easier than Snake - better footholds and more postive hand jams. But longer!

Leaving a dog at the base of Yak is a good way to get a dead dog, if youve ever seen people dropping the shit down from up there like water bottles, cams, huge rocks.... Duh like wouldn't your dog have been safer at home? RETARDS Thanks for the beta refinements, Mike, I will update if'n I think you are correct. Like that right and left thing I probably led that pitch and wrote the description looking at it from above

I guess it isnt yours then, must be someone else who paints their gear green.
