yeah, buildings too! except for the 5 0.

Whatever man. Your an elitist prick. I hope in the next life you may know a world where every one lives by your standards. Good day.

I hope to get a quik trip in before school starts up again. But I'm not sure why anyone would want to go light on those silly mountains when you could endure the misery of hauling enormous loads up and down from El Cap... Erik ani't jokin about that jail thing. Warning: Stay out of Manure Pile parking lot after dark. We got the third degree from a ranger in there ten minutes after smoking a bowl. I almost shit when she started pointing her light in my rig. The next night at dusk we saw a group of climbers having all their packs searched by a drove of cops. Those rangers are out to bust you.

Yeah, but honestly, have you ever seen or heard of someone less than twenty years old drilling new bolts? Are the people coming out to sport crags in droves also drilling bolts? No, usually not. They come to sport climb to learn what climbing is all about via the "safest" method. Why don't you guys just come out and say it: you don't want any new climbers to get involved in YOUR "sacred" activity. Keep dreamin...

Tim, They arn't the lightest, but I just got a pair ofGarmot Dragontails for wall climbin. They rallied on El Cap and were super pissed when my partners wanted to bail. Low top, neumatic crampon compatible, 3/4 shank, and super buly rand. Check em out! Next time I plan on doing 5.8 with a wall rack on El Cap, I'm bringing the crampons!

A member of Verical World found a pair of shoes at the Far Side sometime a week or so ago. There is a note posted on the bullitin board at the Seattle gym. And the shoes are in the lost and found there.

I agree with jon. Most of the bolts that exist today wre drilled by the former generation of climbers in the 80's and 90's, mostly by middle aged folks. The youger generation that lack bolting ethics are ussualy too lazy to care about drilling anyway, they just go bouldering. [ 06-28-2002, 12:01 PM: Message edited by: Lambone ]

Ok, whoa...actualy I'd go climbing with a mountie anyday over that dude... Reading all the books and studying all the maps can not fully train someone to climb the alleged second hardest to climb high point in the continental U.S.When our knowledge of our surroundings failed, our natural survival instincts took over. Uh...what planet is this guy from? Oh...Billings, that explains it all. Too much Crystal Meth... [ 06-28-2002, 11:49 AM: Message edited by: Lambone ]

Still, there are far less gumbies in Montana then Washington (no mounties) and no permits. I remember feeling like Alex Lowe on my way to climb Granite peak back in the day. That was just before we almost got fried by lightning on top of the Froze to Death. Better stry over beers... It is a cool place up there, the Beartooths rock!

Yo David, Those photos just improved the quality of my otherwise uneventfull/boring day. Thanks bro, way to get after it!

Dennis Thats the stupidest godamn thing I have ever heard... Maybe you should start writting letters to the Pres. asking for another draft so the American youth can earn the freedoms we have now... Or you could just shut the hell up and leave jon alone. I am pretty damn sure you havent "paid any price whatsoever" for the entertainment that his web site provides you daily.

I don't know about monster shape... I did it of the couch last year, and I am a total wimp...although we did bivi down at the creek. Here is what I remember about the start. We thought it was fairly obvious. Go to the toe of butress and look up. Look for a wide crack that narrows towards the top and leans to the right. Good cracks lead up to it and out of it. The rest is pretty striaghtforward, just stay on the ridge. Good look, if you'd like more details, send me a PM. Have fun!

uhhhh...yeah

Maybe someone should have told that climber that ti-blocks are not made for descending

dude it's a mountain, and regardless of how chossy it is, how can you hate a mountain? sure you may dislike the routes, and the people who tend to flock to them... ...but come on man, leave the Toof alone, what did it do to you?

Ummm...what is that thing...

Larson, if I wanted you to whisper sweet nothings into my PM inbox, I would have asked... Go slog your fat ass up Ranier and sit on one of those steam vents you SUV drivin wanna be climber x'game watchin Big Lou lovin' son of a bitch...

goddamn, what an eliquent statement.... do us all a favor and shut the hell up Larson

A week ago it was skiable to the lake with a few rocks out here and there, but I wouldn't say that it's worth lugging skis up there.
