Any granite wall you can walk up to within 1 hour have lines if it's near any city. Scree, glaciers, talus are just part of the game if you want to enjoy some more remote climbing. The vies photos and experience overrride anything else. This is obvious... Just give it a few tries and you too will find yourself addicted to the alpine Scrambling is just a means of getting to those alpine walls sometimes

It's free soloing

In a nutshell it boils down to take your poison really. It's ten miles either way to Prusik. Obviously if I was going to climb Temple I would not take Aasgard. Who would unless they had some sort of weird plan....

You are probably online so much, you just assume everybody else has the time. Truth is-we don't all have T1's or DSL's. It's not as easy as you think. I dont think Jon is assuming anyone has the time to create a new database of info that is already here. I think if you are just patient enough and savvy it will pay off. It's not super convenient but it is there. Searching a database through the web is time consuming but nobody's getting paid on the moderator side.

that photo is totally ugly scenery never hike in there

Well I am open to other people's ideas. Let's not jump all over it. Maybe there is a better spot.

TG - I don't think you necessarily need to paint with such broad strokes. If you were climbing basalt (maybe you are), I could understand. But after following this whole thread, and knowing what a "good" cam placement in granite looks like, I still have faith in my placements. Each situation, and rock medium, is unique and should be judged accordingly. Keep the faith, bro. ps glad to see you are not hounding allison anymore. Maybe being married has chnaged you. GregW the cams were all broken!!! Didnt you read that? The only type of rock that would make me less woried about cams now is softer rock!!! "keep the faith bro"!!! idiotic. Keep the faith bro, committing suicide is the only way to get picked up by thos aliesn behind the comet!!! Dlunkman, I have taken a few 20 foot screamers on cams used with granite. I fear that rock a lot less than sandstone. Maybe this is a troll

Celtic Bayou is the name of the place.

It's an idea and I know exaclty the one you are talking about. Lemme find the name oi

You go there. Hold your breath and we'll be arriving shortly after

Dan Larson SUX! Hehe I know he'll read this now! Are you going to show Dan or what? How about Scot'terrydactylitis or this TimL dude? [ 10-09-2002, 10:17 AM: Message edited by: Cpt.Caveman ]

I take it back-- Everyone should go straight up Toketie Creek drainage. Great trail!

Don't hold your breath but I do know some of the dudes here climb on the East Coast... But there's better ice close by

NW Brewhouse sucks butt Let's hear some ideas and I will get some in the next few days. I found new watering holes that are way better.

I didn't forget the guy but he seems to be in a mole hole sometimes. Let's strongarm it and feed egos etc so we can have it over here

Lisa we should just have it on this side again Jens, Rodeo, Greg W, Juan, CascadeClimber, Col Von Spankmeister and others should all show though.

It never does. Just take skis then

Granite- Is there any other rock? I thought the rest was junk
