BARF! Now it's Holly AND Dagen....Bring back Donna Top Step please...

Isn't "RMNP" actually Rocky Mountain National Park?

Dr E you go both ways huh?

Pope, As you are well aware I am the Incubus, but since there is no hope of redemption I will confess out of spitefulness. I often perform contrived boulder maneuvers with the page exposed and open to Rachel Babkirk's heavenly visage in R&I#107....

Just wanted to see if anyone was paying attention Actually my ex climbing partners bolted a line near Cocaine gulley at Smith and named it "Purple Headed Warrior" 5.7 and fun...bolts...

You're being facetious! Nice one... ***Kill the white people...but buy my record first...***

This site reminds me of you Poop...I mean Pope sorry... http://doodie.com/index.php?date=05312001&dir=b

I don't really care what you want to know.

I know who placed that bolt and I will never ever ever tell. The person who did it shouldn't have to answer to anyone on this board that's for darn sure!! Speculate all you want.... Z

Donna Top Rope, Don't get your panties all bunched up girl. No one was dissin' anyone or doubting the wisdom of the legend. But come on--- *anyone* can reach the same conclusions if they spend enough time doing the things they want. I don't need Fred's advice to figure out that gear mostly works and that there is alot of marketing hype behind it. Buying gear is somewhat commonsense. And YES! I LOVE REI and the liberal return policy while it provides the greatest return on people watching. On a side note...I kind of secretly get a real kick out of seeing basic mountaineers classes in the mountains. It's like watching planet of the apes or something with a somewhat doomed ending in progress. I did enjoy your relating this story. Thanks! Oh, and I love pulling on mono digit super slick slopers backstepped into the figure 4 leglock rest step one arm flailing position. But only on TR though.... Incidentally...Pope is E. I am Z... Spray hard!

Uh isn't that the INTER GLACIER? I have not been on it...sorry

E, Postive/negative clearance....pleeeeaaaazzzeeee I'm pretty sure as you're rag dolling down the hill at mach speed you won't really give it much thought either way. Donna Top Rope is a name dropper/worshipper isn't she/he???

I was wondering if you could elaborate on "preparing mentally to be beat down by the approach" Does this mean you are spending hours in meditation envisioning yourself walking uphill with a large pack? Do tell about your mental training regime....

Bunnies post is too sweet to linger in "spray" it should be brought to the forefront categories....anyone care to copy+paste it into controversy?

Missed this whole online topic because we were out climbing the past few days, but we encountered some of these new and retro bolted climbs the past few days. Someone bolted a sport climb to the right of dog leg crack on alphabet rock that was a TR line previously and goes clean on gear. Not thoughtful imaginative gear, but plain old putting stuff in the cracks. There is one bolt out of the 8 or so that could be left in place, but the rest should probably be removed. I am curious myself who found it neccessary to start doing all this bolting?

This was a ridiculous topic the last time around as well. If you need a porter to carry your gear on Rainier then stay on Timpanagos or American Fork. If you're trying to bait someone then register on narcsRus.com Z

This site is pathetic
