i was at work. (duh!) i wanted to thank michael for making my typical weekend dream come true yesterday. (and by that i mean climbing in squamish of course.) out of the three partners for two days i had lined up, only one of those partners came through. (the rest of you suck!!! )

there's a difference between getting pumped and getting a workout. why is gym climbing any different to sport climbing outdoors than the husky wall is to climbing on real boulders outdoors? hmm??? (some of you just aren't getting it!)

dude, i want your job!

that only works if you're in the sciences. most grad students don't get paid to go to school. i certainly didn't get paid to go to law school!!! (i'll be paying for that for YEARS to come ... )

uh, for number 3, what should you smear it with?

so, who wants to go bouldering? (and i do NOT mean at the husky wall!!!)

that's real purty!

quote: Originally posted by Dr Flash Amazing: Plenty of bouldering around Leavenworth, isn't there? yeah; now that i look at the climbing guide there does appear to be quite a few of them. somehow, though, i'd rather drive to squish. if you add the drive and hike times together i bet they're pretty comparable. well, at least using my drive and hike times!

haven't had a ton of experience with carrying it over yet, but i really like my grivel rock. (it's got a narrow frame that's "helpful" for retaining climbing mobility.

don't you know that the best sex happens between two people who love each other?

"hard" is relative. especially in boulder problems. i can work some stuff on the wall; i just don't get a workout from it. a workout, to me, involves sore muscles more than "sore tendons". anyway, i just prefer to boulder in relative seclusion, surrounded by nature, and on REAL boulders.

dude, im dissin the rock cuz itz uglee. the gym is where i play in the wee hours of the morning before some people even get out of bed, and i get way more of a workout there than that wussy little wall could ever afford me. when it comes to bouldering i wanna slap my hands on the clean smooth flesh of one big rock stone, crimp my fingers on nature-made edges, and fall onto a bouldering pad surrounded by dirt and lush forests.

trask, can you lead 5.14 sport? i'm looking for a man who can take me to the brink of heaven in more than one realm of existence.

geez, dude; you're not looking for much, are you?

sk, we both know those guys are all just jealous and frustrated! (except for jkrueger, that is; at least he's got one of us! )

just curious if any of you have used the mini traxion as an ascender for self-belay ...

off topic, but i can't help myself. (it's the first thing i thought of when i saw this thread title ... triumph ... the insult comic dog

lucky for him, i don't choose my partners based on looks!

thanks - mostly about soloing via tr, but "interesting" anyway.

yet another reason to move to squamish. (as if i needed another one!!!)

my silent partner isn't getting shipped out until monday, so until then i need a real live talking one. sunday or monday. not too far away since my car's "hurt". super multi-pitch sport routes 10a-c would be cool ... but easier trad would work - for leading i mean; i can follow into the 11's. pm me.

if it doesn't even look like a boulder, i'm NOT interested!
