The momma is out flashing truck drivers; she then adds the last words they scream out before skidding off the road to her own vocabulary.

Watch out for the bats in the "cave" on your way down to Sunshine Wall!

Did they mention anything about the rumors that Texplorer will be played by none other than Texplorer himself? The Internet buzz is that Tex negotiated a rather large advance for his role in the film and is using it to fund a climbing sojourn to the valley, thereby bringing production of the movie to a screaming halt!

When you head down to Smith you should stop in at Flagstone - it's relatively close. It's a slab climbing frictioners paradise, if you're into that sort of thing. The harder routes are bold, so even though it's sport, be sure to bring your nuts!

Last seen stashed on the side of some forest service road near Sless-E... I can only imagine the size of the snafflehound that took it, and the sinister grin on its face as it pedaled away. Damn snaffles are getting bold! In memory, here's some Judas Priest with Breaking the Law:

For your personal safety, I hope you've got all the sharp tools locked up in a shed! Better yet, put your team of trained attack snaffles on high alert, and keep a supply of horsecock nearby so that when the angry mob of worker bees shows up you can club them with it while making a hasty retreat.

quote: Originally posted by Scottish wanker: The more the spray, then the less the hardcore? There is no correlation: Trask sprays with the best of 'em, but keeps his climbing to himself. Dru sprays second to none, and can quote everything from climbing history to obscure route beta on command while making you shoot beer out of your nose. DFA can go round after round in the spray ring, but being a sportclimber, many would question whether he's actually hardcore or not. SK is a spray queen, but is more likely to hit you with emoticons than actual beta. Everyone sprays, but each in their own particular way... [ 08-27-2002, 09:45 PM: Message edited by: jkrueger ]

Some time ago I asked a question on cc.com regarding the best thing to do regarding anchors that consist merely of two bolt hangers. I had encounted such a setup at the top of a fun sport route, and it had become an eyesore of multiple slings wrapped through the hangers and a large metal ring (a bearing, maybe?) to rap off of. Besides being ugly and spooky, it was hard to set an anchor with all that crap up there! Many cc.com folk replied, and it was suggested that the best thing to do was add quicklinks and chains. So yesterday (almost a year later), the anchor on the corner arete route at The Arch (Wolf Rock, OR) was equipped with quicklinks and chains - and it is a much happier route because of it! I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who offered their suggestions, and let it be known that on occasion cc.com does contribute to the good of the PNW climbing community at large. Strangely, the guy at Home Depot ended up just giving me the chains... karma???

With a name like that, how can I pass it up?

The red camalot, followed by the red alien. But everyone knows it's a good idea to have a full set of nuts with you at all times.

I've been wondering about this place since I saw the photo in the Metolius catalog. Thanks for the extensive and detailed beta!!! How long until we see DFA's photo on wanted posters around the Bend area for leaking such classified and sensitive information?

Who in their right mind (besides DFA, of course) would go to Smith to sport climb? OK, I admit that I am working on a ticklist of 5.10 sport routes to do at Smith as well: Screaming Yellow Zonkers BBQ the Pope Wedding Day Bring on the thread creep!

I've been working on my ticklist of trad 10a's to do at Smith: Cruel Sister Delirium Tremens Karate Crack And there are more in the Gorge... Let me know anytime you want a partner for a Smith Rock trad trip!

quote: Originally posted by sk: I have often likened being in a band to an intamate love relation ship with the playing being the "sex" I was just excited to hear any one have a similare oppinion They are incomparable. The connection between musicians may be intimate in that it is a shared experience, and spiritual in that true music is an expression of one's soul. However, when playing music there is no physical contact as there is in sex. If one must compare, I would liken it more to an intimate friendship, where a conversation is shared and words of expression are equated with notes of expression. Perhaps a climbing partner relationship is even deeper, in that you share an experience that is intimate to the point that you trust each other with your lives. After all, nobody dies when someone in the band hits a wanker note! Maybe the difference in opinion stems from the inherent differences between men and women? I would imagine that most men see the physical aspect of relationships more threatening, whereas women would perceive an intimate non-physical connection to be more of a concern.

After 2,433 posts of spray you expect us to take your question seriously? I can only think that you're looking for something scary enough to require the use of that helmet of yours...

I always wear a helmet for trad. When sport climbing, I only wear a helmet on bad hair days.
