Pm sent,

coming up from Pullman. would like to try McClellen. 5.8- 5.11 range

Try McClellan instead. I know nothing about it , though Beau went there and said it was awesome. Message me when you are in town and the weather is good, I am close enough to join you,W

You are spot on mr.

Damn, Sincere condolences to the many grieving people right now. My fondest memory of Joe was helping fix the A/V fiasco at one of his latest slide-shows at Feathered Friends. I held the broken cable through the entire show. Occasionally it would short out . He was unflappable and made light of the difficulties. What a great person to have known.

Trip: Index - Centerfold, Rattletale Date: 10/16/2010 Trip Report: Fargo and I hit the Diamond area last weekend. Now that he is a Puget Sound guy and all, we got to do multi-pitch routes and not have to worry about the short days. Centerfold is a stout route, and I would translate the grades to 4 pitches of 5.11 according to the softer grades that one would find at, say Smith or Leavenworth. There is just no denying the difficulty of the variety of grades we found on the 3 different topos. Anyhow, great climb though. The first pitch is so very balancy and the foot moves are dicy friction. Here is Orion leading it after we were rappelling. The money pitch for me was the second. Just the most fun lead for sure It has been a long time since I ran out of small stoppers on a lead!. Pitch 3 featured the most absurd move of all. Neither on of us could do it clean. 1 topo rated it 10b! HA!! Pitch 4 wasnt to hard, but I took my only lead fall on it because I have such huge fingers. The route is falling back to nature, More people should do it to keep it clean. It was surprising day for having had lots of rain 2 days before. Go get it this week. More on my blog below.

I thought we shook them down for 20bills

Give you that one. The lower falls included=189m. Meters sound so short.

If it gets that cold again, I am headed for M_________ falls , 2o0m WI6.

Love those Messner/Habler sweaters! Nice reports guys.

Anyone want to hit the toolin tomorrow?

There is some great trad @ Smith. The pitchs arent that long so a set and a half cams and set of stoppers should do.

The gear recovery was successful. Thanks to Josh K and Dave K. Yes, they had to resort to the K-team.

I would take......up a more interesting sport

Congrats, looks like you tagged a beauty!

It is possible to do cathedral ridge this time of year. Crampons for the queens chair.

Love those colors.
