You are an idiot for taking my statements out of context like that. It's merely an example of his will and desperation. Work on your reading comprehension Cpt. Flamethrower: unless you are a member of the Bush administration I in no way stated that it was your suggestion. All I did was use a snippet of one of your brief posts as a springboard for my own spray. I know it always pisses you off, but I just can't help myself. No harm intended though.[/QB]Yeah but you make it like I am saying that or someone actually did. It aint true.

quote: Originally posted by Fence Sitter: the thing that makes me look at the rope is that teh cam was stripped....this suggests that it was placed well, but pulled out by brute force... i knwo it is purely speculation, but i cant think of anyother way the cam could have gotten mangled and still come out... Well I guess we can speculate about the outcome for some time. You never now sometimes. Hopefully it was not shotty gear but some things point to it. I know that I have climbed cracks there and got shotty placements in the rock sometimes but to say it was that is premature and arrogant. By shotty I mean that the cam walked or that not all the parts of the caming device touched properly. Sometimes it was 2 or 3 cams instead of 4. I am sad to hear someone die either way.

quote: Originally posted by Lambone: oh, hehe...I knew that! it was my first time to the range. um, well we returned on the 23rd, so I'm not sure what it has done since then. But here is what we saw. The weather was great for the first two days we were there while we were figureing out what we were going to do. Then as soon as we started climbing it be came unsettled. Rain showers below 8,000ft, and snow flurries above. Plus it was really windy up above tree line, on exposed ridges and stuff. Nasty enough that we decided that the summit wasn't worth the suffering. It was nice down on the glaciers though. Two weeks before we arived a big system moved in and put down up to 5ft of snow in some high places like Abbots pass hut. Then it was sunny and warm for a week, things settled out and melted quite a bit. The glaciers were mostly dry with some windblown pockets of snow. They were either blue ice, or firm snow crust. We didn't feel that it was nessecary to have avy gear as we didn't see any sign of recent slides. The trees were turning color, the huts were empty...and it was really nice, just a bit cold. I'd head back again in mid-september. The rock routes loked steller...next time. Werd up man that is the info I was lookin fer

I doubt static gear would cause a carabiner failure but I am no expert. I would also suspect that Goran would not use such a rope to begin with. It appears that the main indicator so far is that the gear failed to contact and hold with the rock like it is designed to. To claim it as a static line failure is pre mature if you ask me. I doubt seriously that this was the culprit. Hopefully we shall find another issue. Considering that a biner failed in a situation where successive cams failed in a row I can only suspect from my point of view that either the rock or cams or both could be to blame. But that still does not rule out the rope issue that I speculate is unrelated.

How would a static line do anything other than fail in this situation? It sounded like the rope was not failure here. Enlighten me.

right on klar I want to explore more there. Magic Bus looked fun as well as many others on 3:00 Rock.

I have to agree with bob about anti salesman. Plus i get to demo all the ice tools and crampons before I make a buying decision. Saves me time and money
