hey, craiga, is that "friend of yours" by chance a commentator for the men's downhill in the olympics?

what's the chute? is that like, the "pearly gates" or whatever? when i climbed the south side some years ago, the chute through "pearly gates" or whatever, seemed about 30 degrees, and the slope below, with the bergscrhund, about 40 degrees... just guessing.

Go hang your ass off a seacliff in a diaper. rat, now that's the kind of reply that makes me proud. good job. but like i said before, the capital letters are a giveaway---lose 'em for authenticity's sake. the real distempered two-faced piece of shit rat [ 02-24-2002: Message edited by: rat ]

hey rat,if you're going to impersonate me, at least make me proud by saying something truly derogatory, inflammatory, salacious, or sarcastic. thanks. and quit using capital letters---it's a giveaway. the real rat

and i nominate caveman as the "tit" climber on this site. he's more well hung (i like that) and he does the nasty.

For actions above and beyond the call of duty, we need "General Caveman" and "Major" Pain-in- the-ass AlpineK. I am bored in a real Rat Hole. If only you knew!

it's a long shot. does anybody out there have any stubai f.k.w. picks just lying around?

cappellini, check your messages.

and did i say steamboat rock is south of coulee city? i'm a fricking eejit. it's south of electric city.

quote: Originally posted by rat: the rock can be scaley and friable due to its proximity to the basalt. I said that? What was I thinking! My little rat head is way to close to my rat ass. That doesn't make any goddamn sense. The plutonic rocks at Butte are scaley and friable, and they are hundreds of miles away from the Columbia River Basalts! The granite at Banks Lake are part of an Eocene intrusive series which also includes at least four generations of dike emplacement. The scaley and friable nature of the massive rocks is probably due to weathering, post-emplacement tectonism, and hydothermal events associated with later acidic igneous rocks. While my earlier assumption regarding the CRB sounds good, I was premature to make this association. I apologize, and from now on my posts will only refer to ice conditions, locations of climbs, grades, how Dan Larson sucks, and a little rat ice-axe sodomy sex shit.

brodyo, a friend and i did a worthwhile mixed route up the south face of "granite peak" years ago. you can see it if you look north from the picnic shelter(?) along the ruth creek road. a climb to do just before the road gets snowed closed because it's not worth skiing all that way.

offwidth climber, the columbia river island you mentioned is called "turtle island" and it has lots of bouldering potential. it is ringed with old "no trespassing" signs (owned by the department of fish and wildlife and has fish spawning/rearing facilities on the southwest end) so we were pretty skittish when we bouldered there. lots of folks party on the beaches there without any problem though.

max, i agree with your take on the entiat boulders but they were convenient when i used to work there for the usfs. i suggest that anyone who goes should take a mountain bike since there are some fine trails upvalley if the bouldering doesn't meet your expectations.

matt,i'll amend my pessimism just for you since you seem desperate for pain. there is probably some ice at the "millenium wall" near snow creek wall. there is a short pillar formed across the creek as you head up toward the eightmile lake trailhead. the cirque below the cannon mt. couloir also holds a few moderate lines if you want to do the approach. there are also two routes up rat creek but access is across private land so you're on your own. avy conditions probably won't work in your favor in the latter two areas. also, as other folks have said tonight, there is ice up near nada and snow lakes if you're willing to shut your pie-hole and get off your ass. at least two climbs were done near nada lake in the late 70's-early 80's. just noticed the photo of limestone near metaline falls. where there's limestone, there is often ice. anyone have any info? i have been past china bend, another limestone area along lake roosevelt, in the winter and not seen any ice. puke blood,ratfuckjingusdog [ 01-23-2002: Message edited by: rat ]

thanks for the info. i use the delorme map cd's for work and they come in handy for planning backcountry trips when i don't have the usgs quad map for a particular area. sitting at the computer is definitely not as fun as drinking beer over a large paper map. sounds like the canadian software isn't worth the cash.

entiat boulders are located on the right side of the road just prior to brief.

Man, I just don't have a clue!

seems like we need a rat#1 and a rat#2 on this site. i prefer to use warm lard from rendered pig heads.
