  1. Do I torture myself so?

    Because we have seen "the other side of life" we are almost worse off, conforming to modern life's rules makes us bristle.

    The thought of another day wasted working drives me to fits. I just want to climb!

     

    PS: Mrs. G & me did manage to get out today...perfect temps and the lady led the hard pitches.

     

    Too bad your climbing addiction just perpetuates the situation. Maybe instead of whining about modern life and its evils you should quit contributing to it and get off the grid and move to Alaska and homestead or shut the fuck up.

  2. I take it that noone is posting anything means they got no sex or climbed anything significant either.

     

    I could spray about how I know from first hand experience how your sister likes it in the ass, but apparently you'd be too busy making rivet hangers for the 5949490th ascent of some El Cap aid gayfest to give a fuck anyway.

  3. Right on Colin. Glad to hear your in good shape. Sounds like a great experience and decent training for Mt. Si.

     

    Have fun on the rest of your trip and time in Pakistan. From my experience, never pay less that 45 rupees for an Islamabad hooker.

  4. AR, before the 80's and pink tights and coke and shit no respectable climber would be caught dead putting in bolts on rappel. It was mostly done on lead usually with hand drills. Hence, most bolted routes were real slabby. Now its pretty much accepted practice to get to drill an anchor then rap down and power drill bolt holes all over the place even in steep overhung sections.

  5. We did that route Monday, but after reading your description, I wonder if we were on the right route. The line we took was super straight forward, definitly the most obvious line on the face (atleast the west side of it). We did the what I thought was the lie back crux on the 2nd pitch. Even though I was wearing sneakers I felt that it was way harder than 5.8. Then the crack continued into a sweet left facing dihedral and up into a cool mini tunnel. Then a pitch of flakes and cracks to easy ground and the summit. Does that sounds like anything you guys were on?
