Wild country still sells slung hexes. The best. Haire offers some good advice. I thought that also in a rappelling pinch I could cut the slings and use them as rappell slings. Black Diamond makes the dumb wired ones.

slung hexes read what highlander wrote. Extra slings are sometimes required on the wired hexes in order to keep them from lifting out of the cracks. [ 10-10-2002, 10:30 AM: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]

Right on it's like mtn climbing. Worth doing once. At the top you are basically on top of 3 musketeers ridge (east end). The descent is waayyy easy too. Not joking it is. The deal was that my partner had it all spied out from a previous trip on the Mole. He did the same deal and when we were up there it was brewing in his mind. We sort of "accidentally" walked by a large wall Mmm Dirt [ 10-10-2002, 08:44 AM: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]

What's the specs? How Much? What Time? What are they raffling

Yeah which one did you climb? There were 2 routes to the right of it. One is really just a variation of the other... They looked like the best lines but should probably be pushed straight up instead of converging with the '74 line to be better unless the rock sux. 5.10 dirt wasn't in my agenda that day so I wimped out and climbed the easier line Yeah we approached after climbing SF Beckey Prusik Peak south past the Mole and went down the Toketie drainage at night.

I climbed the 1974 route I think it was. Large chimney up high. Loose blocks. Exciting!

After last season's fires I wouldn't say Smoke A Thai is a highway

Paul, Charlie, Crack and I used to party down there a lot. Builder problems on the back next to the pool table.

Stoner Witch would work just fine. Blumwack next season I'll be looking for you.

Oh yeah the Melvins are pretty good all the other wussy shit like Phish can lick it

Well it depends on when you think you are going to fall most when traversing. Think about it... If you are traversing past an anchor... do you clip it one way or the other? According to petzl you will be wrong one way or the other eventually unlessth route alwyas traverses one way or the other. You can't win unless it's a perfect up and down route [ 10-09-2002, 08:17 PM: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]
