  1. Charlie aid soloed some A4 route on that face in winter too... and probably a bunch of other routes that I don't remember hearing about.
  2. Oh boy, you're gonna write TRs for tree-covered hills like Klenke?
  3. Bill, if a friend told you that eating your own shit was nutritious, would you do it? EDIT: you probably would. You are that gullible.
  4. See, that's hooey. Dude's never ridden a mountain bike.
  5. I'd be interested if you could find any quotes by Pat Ament that are actually any good. Even in his Supertaco posts... Didn't he switch to selfpublishing just so he wouldn't ever have to get his prose edited?
  6. A helmet would just make you a corpse with good hair

    Yeah my legs are too big.
  9. the opposition base is pissed... so are a significant number of those that voted for B-HO. At least that's true today. 14 months left until midterm elections... exactly. The opposition base is pissed (they always are, whether in power or out), and once again the democrats are going to shoot themselves in the foot by squabbling endlessly amongst themselves and will then wonder how they blew it so quickly. Meanwhile the Republicans can't wait to take back power in 2010 and maybe 2012 too, so they can get back to doing absolutely nothing about health care except maintaining the profit margins of the insurance lobby. the base was pretty blase during the 2008 election I'm hoping for a viable third party to rise up like zombies?
  10. Is that where you caught chlamydia?
  11. You can buy a separate hard drive with like 250GB of storage for $100, why fuck around backing up online?
  12. That's so gay.

    There is an enormously contemplative, nay, mystical feeling of peace created from the long process of meticulously gardening, preparing, working, rehearsing and finally redpointing a route that those who only climb onsight will never experience. Personally I prefer to climb onsight in the mountains because I'm too lazy to hike more than I have to, but for cragging FAs I much prefer the top-down approach when situations require it.
  14. That's just the same as Alpinist X though.
  15. Don't take the brown acid
  16. There is no overlap between the two, except, say, that the Selected Alpine describes a route on Mt Edith and the Scrambles Guide describes the climb's descent route on Mt Edith as an ascent route. But there is an overlap in that some of the easy "climbs" in the Selected Alpine, like the East Ridge of Mt Edith Cavell or the North Ridge on Mt Assiniboine, are mostly scrambling even if typically/historically done roped, and the "very difficult" scrambles in the Scrambles guide are pretty much of the same technical difficulty but on peaks that are usually/historically done unroped. The classic route on Mt Lorette is one that might be in both, I can't remember.
  17. Then there's that book she wrote that was all "I dated Dean, and then I dated Kennan, and now I married Dean and he's my soulmate for life" and almost as soon as it's published she divorces Dean. The next edition is gonna have some interesting revisions.

    if you threw in some "cock gargling fetus felcher" in there you might sound like polish bob

    So Pope, if somebody puts up a rappel bolted one pitch slab climb, with 2 bolts in 50 meters, are they deliberately increasing the danger or just mimicing the trad experience for those who repeat the route later?
  22. It's the only one in print anyways. As well, Alan Kane's "Scrambles in the Canadian Rockies" contains a "very difficult" category of scrambles that are moderately easy climbs for some
  23. maybe I just misread it this morning.
  24. The east face has kicked back a couple strong parties and is still waiting for a first ascent... north face too I guess although it's not as good a line unless you like flakes in your moss
