It is but I can go one and name many more to take its place. I chose LK because it's at Si. Land of pussies according to the gentry here.

Lizard King is scarier than many trad Eldo routes known for their boldness when first ascended: eg: Wide Country, Black Walk

Aint nothin' on the Nose or Fairview Regular or NW Half Dome that require the commitment of either Antidote or Lizard King.

E-Q-U-I-V-0-C-A-T-I-O-N

The whole Sport/trad thing is a marketing scam. 1) Get on the Antidote (Index) and tell me footwork doesn't matter. 2) Get on Lizard King (Si) and tell me those runouts aren't commiting. 3) Go to Indian Creek and wonder why everyone has all their hard sends there. ( Mindless pro, easy ratings, and robot technique) As in anything climbing is what you make it.

Like Index? Try: First pitch of Davis-Holland 5.9 (Good cams for pro, short crux) First pitch of Town Crier 5.9 (Chimney with a short well protected crux at the end) Short pitch to top of Big Honker Ledge 5.7 TR the crack below the ledge - right side. Eat lunch and enjoy the view!

What are your plans? Goals?

From another forum..... I thik I will be sick Sunday afternoon.....

history repeats.......

I am in need of a new rope in the next few days. Any good sales going on with immediate pick up at Seattle area stores? I am interested in a single rope at least 60m.

anyone else have a crush on Mary Hopkin when they were younger? hPKihuv986M

Blake - Climbers other than those mentioned in the thread have been there before and after this TR was first posted.

You wankers. Just last week my mother sent me a bunch of papers from my youth. One of the items was a letter signed by good old Ronnie while he was Gov of CA. I sent him a letter expressing my concern about several issues and his response was reassuring. Think I’ll have it framed. Now…how about those M’s!

Scott - You wrote: "The old 1/4" bolts were replaced and new bolts (some 2 feet apart) added to the second ladder where hooks were used at first." Are you saying that old bolts were replaced and additional new bolts were placed within two feet of the existing bolt placements and that in addition to this other new bolts were placed by this same party? By the way it was not a runout death climb before the retro-bolting which I have never seen. Did you climb the route before it was rebolted? Has it only been rebolted once?

At least one today..gotta run...believe in the MOJO!

I checked out that area a few years ago when I was considering buying a house in Anacortes. My thought a the time was to forego the use of bolts unless they were Ti. Just my 2 cents.

food for thought: read first read second read third

A grade VI at the Safe! I actually had to sit next to a Boston fan. At least he grew up there but still it's hard to imagine anyone staying a Red Sox fan after growing up. Damn Botox!

Things have become a bit loose in the RC forum. Let's try to keep the spray out....

The trip before last (A's) we snagged a couple of Felix autographs! Felix is a big guy. he did perform better last night.

Putz was dissapointing but the fact that the Ms kept going is a very good sign. Leave early? Never!!
