What, not everybody does this!?!?

Look what I found by typing "Infinite Bliss Topo" into Google...

That I remember, there's a ledge with bolts is closer to the base of the route and a little further out on the East Face. I believe the bolts Mike pictures weren't there the last time I was. Then again, that was about 8 years ago... Going down the southern chimney descents seems neither faster or slower than descending the route with two ropes (I've done both). The traverse under the east face back to the base to get our packs went pretty quickly. Spotly's "north side chimney" might be refering to the right hand option of the first pitch (?).

No.

Somewhat of a fixation for you, isn't it Dru?

I'm assuming you don't have children...

"Don't bogart that joint, my friend... Pass it Over to me." Seriously... Isn't an intense focus in the pursuit of The Goal one of the tenets of both religion and climbing?

"Aaahh! Hey, boy, slow down, you're gonna mess around and come too fast. You'll make me get mad and I'll clench up my butt cheeks and rip your dick off!"

FUBU... Fucked Up Beyond Understanding?

Sorry, it's gone.

There was one that spanned a side canyon of the Kern River canyon just east of Bakersfield that was probably 4 times the size of the one in question. The water came out of a tunnel in the east wall, travelled through the flume maybe thirty feet and then disappeared into a tunnel in the western wall. The water was just ripping through it too. Despite the long hot hike we had just done to get up there, we steered well clear 'cause it just looked really deadly.

I haven't got the picture handy, but the loo at the lower saddle in the Tetons gives one a silhouette view of the Sawtooths in Idaho around sunset.

I bought my kid the last issue because he's almost 9 and really into shit like that. He laughed all the way through it. The cover mentioned it was the last issue and that the explanation was on the inside. Inside was the explanation that the staff was being into space by aliens for an undetermined amount of time.

A couple of years ago I inherited a nearly-new vintage Forrest wall hammock with fly that needs a good home. Spreader bar not included. Convenient pick-up or pay shipping and it's yours.

Glover was the guy in the Santa Claus suit in Wild At Heart. That was about the freakiest thing in that movie.
