Old Town is a good tavern. A little pricey, but agood place.

Hard to go wrong with Sportivas. Very well designed and fit. I've used Makalu and Nepal Top. They the bomb.

Anyone have any updated beta? Royal Collumns or Bend open this weekend?

No haul bag no ledge no backpacks short fix simul climb fast fast fast

Yeah what a viscous killer. We should put Coltrane in the battle pit with Roxy and take bets. They'd probably sit there and stare at their belly buttons.

There's a difference between talking shit on cascadeclimbers and being a rude self-righteous asshole too others you meet in the mountains (or at pub club). [ 04-09-2002: Message edited by: specialed ]

I'd go but Erik stole my rasta knit cap last weekend and I just can't boulder without it. And I don't have my crashpad or big communal chalk bag with me. Damn.

Stay off the drugs there T-rask.

A lot of my snowboard/mountaineer/climber buddies have split decisions. You can use this setup with mountaineering boots, and I've heard the performance isn't bad, and you can tour anywhere and you'll be ready to climb. You'll also have a board that works great for b/c snowboarding with regular snowboard boots. YOu can also buy a conversion kit, pretty cheap but I'm not sure of the actual cost, that allows you to turn a regular snowboard into a split decision. My buddy Solon did that and snowboards gnarly shit with it. And you won't have to learn how to ski! [ 04-05-2002: Message edited by: specialed ]

Don't eat the green acid.

This horrible horrible shit just happened to my good friends Andy, Greg, and Solin. I had just left those guys in Golden when this shit happened. http://www.csac.org/Incidents/2001-02/20020318-Canada.html

Well atleast its not addictive. I've been smoking for eight years and I'm not addicted.

Didn't want to fall on that shaky green alien ten feet below? That OW on Kor-Ingalls is a right of passage for climbers bro. Its funny if you do the east chimneys route on Castleton one of the belays is directly across from that crux section on Kor-Ingalls and while your belaying you can listen through the rock to people cuss, freak out, and shit their pants as they go through that OW

I think its unrealistic to expect outdoor retail salespeople to know everything about every product and have experience with it. Why would you rely on someone who is getting paid to sell you something for unbiased advice on a product anyway? Unless you're a gumby you should be able to figure out what you want to buy by doing your own research, using common sense, and asking climber friends, etc. I worked in outdoor retail for 1.5 years and I'd say about 95% of everyting I told customers was bullshit that they either wanted to hear or could have figured out themselves. The internet has made retail obsolete for lots of climbing gear anyway.

Icegirl I feel your loss. I like rock shoes more than Imelda Marcos likes Ferregamos. I'd be fuckin pissed if my rock shoes got stolen. But atleast they didn't make off with any super expensive hardwear or anything.
