He Drul I thought the original plan was this weekend? So much for that I guess. Set new time before winter arrives homey

Great I like to ski! I think I climbed past a Larch tree recently since my partner mentioned it but I could not identify one tree from another Let it snow!

Why dont we make it there after the Party in the Icicle?

Perhaps it would be possible to use some sort of censor function that will filter out posts containing offensive language. Wow censorshit and all would certainly make this site a true bore. If you are looking for a database trip report board look at http://bivouac.com that is more like it. If that is what you are after then go make the board. Bottom line this is basically a chat board. Although you can find the trip reports, gear info, partners, etc. I will say that the Antagonizer is a little on the hostile side and that you people here are just as bad at egging him on and feeding the fire. I mean just because you dont sware or threaten doesn't mean you are the innocent bystander I have been offended several times on this board by some of you without using such threats or "out of line" words. Wake up people. I prefer to sware and talk as much shit as possible to be honest. It is my nature.

quote: Originally posted by jblakley: Ditto on that one! I would say that if you have flawless flaring, overhanging offwidth technique this would be a 5.8! This climb sticks out as one of the most awkward I have ever tried. Poor technique homey! The problem with the offwidths is that everyone avoids them at the crags most of the time. Then when they do them they got no technique which goes a long way. Also which way you face when climbing is critical.. I say if you are bad at offwidths go do some laps on Damnation Crack and something like Battered Sandwich for starters. I have semi poor technique on them but this year I have been working on them. I often find that even though an armbar or something feels in secure I later toprope and test it finding that it is rather secure to move up on. Plus when climbing OW you usually get bomber cams that are better than anything you can ask for.

I speculate there was some snow up there.....

Lucky I am not getting your message?. There is a lot of rock to bolt on over there though......

Sounds fun where is the topo?

Ragonizer you crack me up. We need some new spray around here Watch out for the censorship police though........... Get naughty and they will erase your posts!

You can bet it will be icy. I used a ski pole and crampons on shoes. Them aluminum ones. The glacier is very short and easy. You would have to throw yourself into a crevasse in order to fall in Go low to first rockband and scrambling high is the way we did it as well. Have fun !

John, I will drink you share buddy I am kind of in the mood for some bloody marys though post your recipe in case my mood changes. I remember that was good stuff!

quote: Originally posted by Jman: Beck, will Teddy R. be there? Rumor has it that he is gonna do a new route up the North Face of CabbagePatch Kid Mountain with Barney that weekend!?

Count me in. Only if Peter Puget and Pencil Puller show up though.

Lucky you should go check out Wildcat Cliff. Way out left there is a ton of stuff to be had. Email me if you want even more info == Fatboyclimber@hotmail.com I even know another area in Lworth

I would prefer Bellevue actually. I just dont know any bars since I am always climbing. Hows about Issaquah Brew Pub? Or is that too far for all you guys? Peter Puget better show up too. [This message has been edited by Cpt.Caveman (edited 09-06-2001).]

I like the new sign at the crag Lucky. reads ===> "Prowelers"

quote: Originally posted by jblakley: Yeah I'm gonna work on that. I just got the new Offwidth model hangboard by Metolius for my room. Problem is it's about 10' feet high and is made from about 400lbs of plastic. I'll get it to fit though godammit! Right on Sport captain! Work on that chickenwing and heel toe while you are at it. Metolius is a killer company. Maybe they will make a model of the Pressure Chamber from Hyperspace so I can practice my alpine grovelling technique! Yippee! Now wouldn't that put the gyms out of business?

quote: Originally posted by Rafael H: Well, let's see. It is usually cold in mountains and often rains in PNW, so it's quite possible that there is some snow there. But then again, there may be not... Quit speculating Rafael And no armchair wisdom. Can anyone tell me how Birds Nest Overhang is reached? Hey Viktor update your topo of Castle Rock I want to do this climb.

quote: Originally posted by Peter Puget: Mattp – You bring up a good point with regard to ratings. I lead the Aries Chimney when a 5.9 lead took all day to get psyched up for and cams weren’t around. In the last few weeks I lead several sport climbs in good style in the 5.11 range yet (head hung low as I write this) I grabbed pieces on every 5.9 traditional lead I attempted last weekend. Sport Captain mentality. Team Gander Mtn Director and members of the KTK were just talking about this stuff at the sport crag this morning I was talking about a pouter that got spanked out in Tieton this weekend. Apparently the guy thinks he can climb 5.11 bolts but groveled and lowered of the 5.8 crack I did

Who's bringin the Tiki Man?

A real cool thread would get into something like homeboy is sleeping with homegirl in the guides tent on a trip. Or Jack (the owner) became a raging drunk and constantly enraged his guides working under him. Give us some real super drama soap opera stuff man!

Good for you guide people. This stuff is boring now that Rod and Will have all started comparing numbers and BS.

In a few years you might be working for RMI or some other group who knows what can happen. Loyalty to your job is kewl but you have to look out for yourself first. Plus getting all bent out of shape over nothing is only going to bother you as some other people will feed off of it. Just some advice

Hey dude when is the one gonna happen over on Mercer? How can you get a group of people all fired up to go out and drink wrecklessly and then think about getting home to a warm bed?
