I came, I cranked on bolts, I tore my lycra, my "partner" won't sleep with me anymore, my feeling got hurt - now I place gear, take it from the rock, but get some when I get home. What the f#$k did I just write?

yes dru, and you have to love your MCAT to get into med school.

To err is human To err on solo is death but. . . To solo is to be pure and free To be free is the greatest way to live so . . . Do what brings you happiness

I really don't see anything wrong with Dennis. After all, if we could get more people into this scuba shit there would be less people on my climbs. He makes a good target sometimes too with his apologies and the like. Keep it up Deny boy.

Yea, spark. Why can't we just all get along. Answer: Cause some of us are just so much more bad ass than the rest of you pathetic posters that you have to spray us.

Snoog doggy dog needs to git him a jobby job. And so do I for that matter. I am an unemployed student looking for a job where I can scope out girls, spew climbing jargon, and get my homework done to boot. If you can help me out I would be appreciated. This is not a joke. I am serious! I need a jobby job in Eugene.

On second thought . . do go up there. Then next time I'm up there I can use your femur as a makeshift ice ax while I cross the glacier. That is if the snaffle's don't get you first. ha ha ha haaaaaaaaa Just kiddin dude, as another poster always says- Go for it!

I know, this damn chemistry class is kickin my ass or I would be up there already. I hope to be able to get there by friday night. This damn school thing was a bad idea. What do you have planned for this weekend? . . besides drinkin a few brews.

But when do moles change to snafflehounds

I am in school "loser" - to become a doctor. that sure takes alot of bong hits to become one of those. Trad is king!

I once won over 1200 dollars (on the keep score setting) of solitare.

TG Well I have never had a person I climbed with all time. I have climbed with alot of people actually. The same things you spoke of: ability level, commitment, kind of climbing, or just personality type are all issues that make climbs great adventures or frustrated yelling matches. When I get frustrated I usually just concede to their wishes but just don't go climbing with them again. I do like experiencing climbing with a partner however. That feeling of totally relying on each other and moving like a smooth machine up a climb or sometimes just making it through when shit hits the fan. I have been pretty fanatical about training and trying to push my limits in the last few years. To me this is what makes climbing fun but I have gotten the "I wanna do something easier and just have fun" thing from several people. Climbing is always fun but I love it the most when its balls out. Good luck on finding that partner or becoming the Dean Potter of eastern Oregon.

Good idea about the Mission thing. . . .Maybe we should change the name to something like the Church of the Ascensionists. Then we could park and travel in the backcountry without trail fees.

The last guy to call me buttplugger was kicked off this site. hmmm. . . Anyway, I had a bunch of favorite climbs and stuff and then I went to the valley and discovered a heavan with less than 10mile approaches. I just like to climb though. I guess at heart my favorite routes involve long sections of clean rock and awesome cracks, chimneys, and wild exposure. I really enjoyed the Steck-Salathe route on the Sentinel and half dome. Doing my first climb on El Cap was humbling too. I guess each time I go to climb I take away so much. They are some of the best memories of my life.

I have spent days of my life on Mind-sweeper

Dude, get with the program. We have discussed it all. I am sure lots of people have done cool stuff but let me tell you -we love to spray people like that. If you really want to chat start this post - Bolts: how to make any route an A1 or maybe discuss the properties of bong smoke at 10,000ft in a hut.

If there are any hottie girls there (single)of course. . . then we might have a nude ascent. We have to take pics though.

hmmmm.. . . . . . . .

. . . and so it began -the first 100 page post on CC.com. Could it be treyx has seen the light. Scott, did you know on the 6th day god created trad, and it was good.

does someone else have your password sk or are you just trying to make us think your not goldy

Up in Darrington area and how do you know I have pants on?

I drive a 93 Cougar. It's got over 200000 miles and is great except that sometimes my champion snafflehounds go to the big backpack full of cheese, gu, and HC in the sky cause of her. Yep its true.

yea Dreamer is a good climb

I was thinkin the other day (which in itself is a rare occurance as you can see by my posts) and thought we need some kind of scholarship program for young people. After all, your early 20's are a terrible thing to waste in school or working or someother lame thing like that. It should be every climber's duty that when they get old to appropriate a certain amount of their wealth to this kind of endeavor. The UYCTF's goal would be to provide up to 3 years of dirtbag assistance for the aspiring young climber. I am curious to what you think the fund should provide. For instance, would a gear stipend be in order or how much money would we alot for reefer or let us not forget HC. All inquiries and suggestions welcome.
