  1. Bathooks? Not on Muji, There isnt any Oak until the top(?)It is a very continuous and interesting outing. It will suffer from the dirt-kiss though as well.
  2. I will tell you the Mujahdeen story when you are ready for it, I think it is the better long aid route at B-tons.
  3. Ah crap, Jared. Sorry Bro. I am glad you are ok though, Give a call if you need anything. Wayne
  4. Not to get back on topic or anything, but that bad rurp held and that is what I started the notorious pitch #3 bat hook ladder from. It was an Olson-made custom rurp and it was the perfect one time placement. You may have to replace it with a new hole and make it 8 in a row. The 9th piece is a really bad blade and you may have to hole it too which would make 13 continuous bat hook placements. You have my permission to put a life-saver bolt half-way up the pitch. I left the route in bad shape, thinking that no person would dare it in the future. This was the era where I disliked gym climbing the most. Sportos seemed so snooty. We did the route in 3 stages. Gymsters found they could not free climb "Go back to the Gym' (pitch #1) I dont remember why I named it that. We were bummed when the 2nd pitch blanked out . We named it "Stay in the gym" for some reason. After acquiring a second bat hook We finished the trilogy off with Pitch#3 "Die in the Gym". It scared the crap out of me. Over time I lost my cynicism towards indoor climbing, though every now and then.... Oh yea I took a 20 foot fall on the hook pitch too . It was on hook # 2 or 3? The hook below me stopped me from taking a 50+ footer!!!!!!!!!! Hows that for a story?
  5. [quote= The Vertical World Climbing Team is one of the best in the nation:  2009 First Place National Youth Bouldering Champions  2008 First Place National Youth Bouldering Championships  2007 Second Place National Youth Sport Climbing Championships  2006 First Place National Youth Sport Climbing Championships These dedicated climbers work hard every day to qualify for divisional and national events, yet not all of them can afford to participate at these higher levels due to the added costs. Last year, team members traveled to Colorado, Utah, and California to compete at the National and Divisional levels. Team members represented the U.S. Climbing Team at the World Championships in Sydney, Australia and Montreal, Canada. You can help our youth climb and win with a gift to: Vertical World Climbing Team Fund, PO Box 221008, Seattle, WA 98122 or by contacting CinniF@msn.com. WOW!!

  7. Wow, This should be a great show! Go Steve and Go Club. I hope to do a show later in the year for the Team. After seeing them in action, it's easy to support them. A community should do that after all.
