i agree.

colorado. heh, heh.

i wouldn't say it totally sucks. i've met some cool people to climb with in salt lake and at lover's leap and yosemite via it. but it's definitely not as fun to waste one's time on ...

mmm. my favorite pitch of that climb.

i didn't get to climb, but i got a look at the fisher towers. yum!!! i also got a look at ouray ... double ice-filled yum!!!

minx, where are you?

tex, my friend recently freed the rostrum. he might be a great partner for you to push stuff with. he's interested in doing zodiac in a day, the nose in a day ... with the right partner. i think you'd be strong enough for him. look me up! i'll put a note on the board at camp 4 when i get back to town tonight ...

i just ran into bchaps in the camp 4 overflow lot this morning. friendly fellow. minx, i'm booked 17th-19th but if you want to climb on any other days, let me know. it looks like it's starting to get busy here ...

i've decided to extend my road trip through october and maybe into november. indian creek is pretty tempting, but i wouldn't need a ride ... i'd need a partner.

minx, where are you???

congratulations ... i think! hope she's a climber!

that gives an interesting visual ...

yes!!!

i know yosemite is supposed to be cool and all, but i really miss squamish. maybe it's all the rain here today that's making me sentimental ... e-rock, make wirlwind climb exaspertor!

i just read a_separate_reality_ by carlos castaneda -- one of my finds in the free book box at the library in south lake tahoe. it's EXCELLENT!!! i'm also currently reading another book about shamanism (from the same box), and i'm happy to report that i have discovered that one of my protector spirits is the spider.

i'll be there. i can follow hard stuff, but i doubt i'll be leading much over easy 10's (*if*). no aiding for me, though.

you really should come down to yosemite, dude. you know you want to.

so sorry you have a job! i'll be in tuolumne meadows tomorrow ...

just wanted to say ... lover's leap is WAY cool!

greg_w - the bun thing was in full effect; but i hit the front of the top of my head, not the back part. maybe i need a series of multiple little buns all over?

murray is a very cool dude. nice seeing you at the or show. salt lake city may have a bunch of climbing, but it's no squamish!

distel, call me from joe's to tell me how awesome it is ...

ditto on this one. as far as racking, i use a sling. that way i can have "easy" access to my gear no matter what hand is where, etc. if you and your partner do it differently and don't want to compromise, then just take the time to do it differently. i think whoever is leading might as well rack the gear the way they want it racked. when i'm leading i don't want to put gear where i'm not used to it being, especially if i'm pushing my limit!

sucks. and while he was buildering, no less.

i got to boulder at rockreation in salt lake. it was pretty fun. but not as fun as joe's would be!
