NEButt of Fury in a day. Northern Picket Traverse in 5 days. Waddington Traverse, How long did it take for young Colin and Marko? Lets see a real climb done fast! :challenge:

Great thing about climbing: Make your own rules!

Cool , I have been looking to that area for a traverse, Like In-Const to Alphabet or another ridge to finnish

Dang Steph! They are tough and I got it handed to me too this year, Both traverses I succeded on in years past, took at least 1 attempt, the single routes you can get lucky on but living high up there is sketchy and you are vulerable to bad weather and bad bails, Keep after it and find somebody tough! Try picking a better summer as well:)

Right On Ex-post 58! Had a great time with you in the late 90s and 2000s. Take it from me , this is the best deal in the world for youngns and people interested in teaching within a top notch organization! You guys Rock! Wayne

Dude you will hear ALL about it when it happens. The good luck charm -Colin

Ah ,Good to see the Explore Post Kicking it, Say hi to Peter from me and I want you guys to post your tr,s here again! Thanks,Wayne

His favorite person! I really miss Jim ,Could someone give me his # again, I wanna invite him to a pdx party this weekend. Any friends of the departing Mr. Lane B.(aka "Artesonraju") is welcome .

anyone going early?

The actual climbing really had begun. F'n scary!

Havent heard old Jims Theories in quite a while, Thank You Ivan!

Besides the fact that the weather sucks in the Winds , What else can be learned from this story?

I hate Domke fires, the worst kind ever. I wonder if Sinister, Leconte, Spider and Snowfield are candidates?

What happened to the bus to Holden? BTW is this just a challenge thread for Off the Hook?

Right, :sarcasm: The Picket Traverse in Winter. Line forms on the left for that one. Props to you John. I like how you can click on the different projects. The heat is on for the Hoze! (line forms on the right for that one.) Seriously though that thing might be the closest thing we have to unapproachable in the range. Off-White the other was the bad n ridge of E Twin Needle. Hey and Props to the Young Guns of Gunsite fame in the new Climbing rag

Spectre, Swiss, West Fury are the only ones that come to my mind.East Fury could be done with a boat.

Who or what determines these avatar titles? I am now the last sprayprentice

What a Monster

Wow it holds crayons too!

Glad to hear you are ok, any follow up on the gear?

The New Ultralight Insulation

Here are a couple of topos of FA's I did long ago that people have been requesting, I never published them, but kept topos all the while. They are very good yet difficult routes. There is more info in the gallery post of the photo.Sorry for the quality issues .they are courtesy of Bob Mcgown and Tim Olson

Mike and I are 0-2 for our big new route projs this year. Its been a while since either of us have been shut out of the AAJ. One more shot coming labor day. We bailed the first time because the approach was undoable the way we chose and the 2nd route just sucked too bad to want to climb it.

The Pole of remoteness. Logans Endless nw ridge

OR if youve seen Marylou pissed off at you and looking at you like that.
