its no secret that I am a chart-geek. I have shared several of them on this board... It is a game I do for myself and thats it. As for the t-shirt thing, I never sold any for my climbs. I have made some to commemorate a couple of significant routes as gifts to partners and that is also it. Too bad I cant be just like everyone else

My formula is simple Take the time you have grab your best partner and do the biggest thing on your list that you may be able to pull off. as for my list of what to do. it is attached with this post 447710-Whattodo.txt.doc

its no secret there are dry crags in pdux. places in broughtons, madrone,smitz, and beacon stay dry. We will let you think that you are the first though if it helps.As for that "alpine chick", cant help you there, your on your own.

ya I had to catch the ferry with Bremerton John, but good show and it looked like you did what you shoulda : you guys had A Great Time on the trip and it showed . the nude pics had me concerned though

Bump, its today.Should be good picks.

14 attempts on the GCD(Black Spider),and counting. It occurred to me I have maybe jinxed it by pre-naming it

woah,ok, Polish or Canadian. I will bet there are ice streaks that form on the thing. Dru, what the deal with the Flatirorn,north face ?

Suffering in the full conditions of the winter that wasnt, Yak peak allowed itself to be climbed by the Yak Check route. Bothered by only the occasional drip,verglass,and snow pile,Lane and I enjoyed just being in the sun and not being roasted by it.( Cant wait till this summer ,when we really will be scorched.) I am sure with a typical winter this route, with its friction and water cracks, would be almost impossible unless you were Polish. What I found to be the best part of this route was the variety of the directions we had to go. Route finding and the climb in general was never boring.This winter* ascent was not a statement of our winter climbing skills,more a statement to the burning of fossil fuels for the last century or so. * post global-warming ascent, not an actual winter.

wayne's boyfriend, artesonraju... Do I sense some jealousy.? I didnt mean to move in on your "domestic partner"

Bandon offers bouldering

What youre seeing in those photos is a loss of glacier on a wholesale level. Some wont know the sky is falling untill it actually hits them on their stupid fucking heads!

Do a search ,I believe I did a anotized on this site,also did a topo, The topo is at Climaxe.

Arachnophopia is so fat right now you could start it with 3 different variations. Its the one left of centerwith 3 fat legs. Maybe Brown will post a photo? Black Widow is thin but The Davis Ramp is probably perfect.The GCD is very thin at the top and middle. Probably 6-7 lines of water ice are in right now. I will be up there Sunday. See you there?

Wow Dave , THanks. That is a truly great Link that makes me glad I have a new computer and connection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn,Tupshin and Buck look sick

Too Warm? I got frozen off of a project this weekend. 18 degrees and wind. Luck..............?I have attempted this route now some 14 times.At least I know its in now though!

do a search on this site....

Great accomplishment guys. That may have been the most attempted climb that hadnt been done yet.There is nothing left out there quite like that.

I vote for figuring it out today so I can get to it after work, as long as I am ranting.........Why doesnt anyone go early? many times I have left a PC at 730 w/o any people showing by then :angryface:

As a concrete guy I think its great to see imagination in a usually bland medium. Has anyone seen the ropes on the Ballard-to Downtown Bike path? I did some cool basalt columns once at a place I owned

Ok thats the right side, I have always considered the side facing crater rock to be the steele cliff. i have nt been on that side

There are several routes up the Steele Cliffs. If someone has aphoto showing the entire width I would draw in the ones I have done,

My instincts say yes it is in good shape
