  1. so I can PM ya. You've hit the glass ceiling set by the server lords.
  2. I climbed the adjacent E Butt route a couple of years ago. The rock on Whitney's E face is super friendly meaning, lots of cracks and features for building anchors and a variety of ways to climb the routes. The E Butt is .7 or .8, but IMO due to such high quality rock and all the features to play with, the climbing is easier than the rating. The E Face route only has a couple of class 5 pitches. Most of the climb is class 4. Once you reach Upper Boy Scout lake you can make out the route on the face. I'm heading back to Whitney Portal in late June. When are you guys gonna be there?
  3. Wet tool night is only for the hard climber. I was keep warm and dry that night pulling plastic in the gym.
  4. Eric, your game of ignorance is not accepted. All of us know the the game here. We ante up for this shit just like all the other shit we empty our pockets for. (dues, taxes, licenses, fees, registrations) Either pay the man, fight city hall with sound reasons or shut the fuck up.
  5. Shelly, You're a classless act. Was the puke induced by your handover or her comments?
  6. You'll have to step into the pool and test the waters for yourself. This is what she posted.
  7. Saw this on craigslist and wanted to share it with those with qualifing credentials. ---------------------------------------- seeking cute 5.12 climber for rebound - 26 Reply to: anon-67286511@craigslist.org Date: 2005-04-06, 8:06PM PDT just ended a long relationship and am looking for a rebound... (note that this is NOT posted on casual encounters.) ideally would like a cute, down to earth guy in my age group who can climb harder than my ex (so that he will be jealous- rest assured, he is living in a different state, so no worries about psychotic ex boyfriends coming to haunt you.) i'm looking to do some casual dating, get back out into the scene and find someone fun to do it with. i am (and you should be): laid back intelligent and able to carry a conversation active and fit able to laugh and have fun living a healthy lifestyle (but still want to go out and indulge every so often) independent friendly there are 2 deal breakers- cigarette smokers and guys with hairy backs. sorry, i just know that i can't get past it. so there it is. if you're interested, shoot me an email. tell me about your favorite climbing area, what book you read last, and the ideal first date. and anything else you want me to know. emails with photos get bonus points, but to be fair (since i didn't give out a photo) i'm not going to hold it against anyone. kiki (not my real name)
  8. Like Dano said, soon as the days are longer I'll thrash the mank at Rocky. Right now getting there early enough to do something by daylight infringes on the work thing.
  9. Oleg, thanks for the overly generous comments. I was a bit gun-ho on this trip, attempting to make up for lack of effort on last month's Hope/Lillooet drunken debauchery. I don't remember the ice being so manky, but what do I know, ice on Hood sets me off. Oleg getting his balls iced up. I'd walk that river any day before taking on the hideous bushwack below Belmore.
  10. Bill, someone beat you to the punch. Already posted in the Climbers Board Photo of Climate Change from BBC
  11. I'll bring a projector.
  12. Hey, I've been busy watching Rob bleed on the Canadian ice. I'd can make it Thursday if someone else can.
  13. What happened, did a lamma kick you out of bed
  14. What the fuck. It's 3am, I haven't done any blow or meth and I'm wide awake. Just got home and I got ACDC crankin on the stereo. Oleg and his crazy wife loaded me with Russian vodka and now I'm wide awake.
  15. And the meek shall inherit the earth
  16. The pencil of ice on the east face of I-Rock that wazzu mentioned looked like a thin smear. With balls it might go, but ice pro would be nothing more than psycholgical. We didn't cross the main body of the Reid to gain the HW, but I looked it over from I-saddle before dropping down. The larger cravasses are open with just enough snow to cover the smaller slots. It was warm at the parking lot at 11am, probably the upper 40's. On the lower half of the HW the wind was blowing rime off of the towers, but further up the golf ball showers subsided. I'm guessing that above 9000' the temp never topped freezing level. I posted more pics in the gallery. Look for the Hood Reid 12-2004 titles. Hood Reid 12-2004
  17. Climb: Escape from the Shopping Mall-Hood Reid HW Date of Climb: 12/23/2004 Trip Report: Instead of fighting the crowds, looking for parking, standing in line at a store check out, and all the other fun stuff of xmas shopping, Oleg and I enjoyed a steller day on Hood. In casual form, we left Timerline at 11am and climbed mid-day, topping out at 7pm. I figured why loose sleep doing the typical Mazama early alpine start. Perfect neve' cramponing on the HW. Soloed most of the climb, then jumped on the ridge around 10,600', thrashing up a couple of rim encrusted sections. Oleg cramponing up I-Rock in good form Rime projectiles Reid towers Nearing sunset Gear Notes: 30m-8.2mm rope A collection of pickets
  18. Tyler, that's some bad ass bedroom toys you're sportin' there.
  19. I've run a number of hashes with the Humphashers (formerly the Bridge Town Hashers). You're basically running for the beer stashed in the woods or the awesome food/beer spread at the end. Usually the runs are mello, an hour or so to complete the hash, but once it took us three hours to find the house party. Huffy, Skinny and Muddy make it a lot fun. Plus there's always single wimmin.
  20. On good snow it's only 1.5-2 hours from the Cooper ski area to the Tilly cabin. The trail gains 2400', taking a fairly direct line up.
  21. Your Jones 'limp' weight is: 1.2 pounds Your sex is: Male Your Jones Fat percentage is: 12 Your Jones Lean Mass is: 1.0 pounds Your Jones 'Activity' weight is: 1.5 pounds Your Jones activity factor is: 0.83 Your Jones recommend penetrations per day are: 36
  22. Lodging in Govy is expensive. You are more apt to find cheap digs in Sandy. You're welcome to flop at my place in Ptown. Plenty of couch room for the traveling climber.
  23. The gang bang on the NF was cancelled due to your absense. Good to hear that you're still in one piece. You are drinking for free next time I see ya. Next time you'll know not to use a crampon as a self arrest device.

  25. Now we know what you and Ivan been up to.
