  3. A certain financial policy was required in order to fund the wars. The results of that are now apparent domestically and, indeed, globally.
  4. You don't think the two are connected?
  5. Extensive testing by Boreal with Gullich, Bachar, Hill and Moffatt proved that for two shoes with same rubber, one purple and one green, the purple one climbed better tha the green one. Same thing here.
  6. There's a route in Wanaka called Fuckityfuckfuck (21, 10c/d) which was named so after something said by the leader during the first ascent...
  7. That was, like, beautiful, man.
  8. The mixed route in the upper Loose Lady bowl is a WI3 called Society Girl. It's pretty thin this year! could you get rock gear or stubbies in?
  9. Fred T. has a pic from the spring (April) with ice all over it but a big running sore down the middle. There is suposedly quite a bit of ice being developed in the Bella Coola valley by heli-ski guides on rest days- Jia sent me some amazing pics last year.
  10. If you look closely there appears to be a geologic contact in the photo, running from about halfway up the ridge down to the base of the face. The rock above the contact looks darker and poorer quality than the rock below...
  11. Wow. I'm sorry Dane, how long should my resume be before I can talk about some fall I never saw?
  12. Kevbone = first hand reporting of watching 20 foot fall Dane = second hand reporting of watching 300 foot fall. Who's gonna step up to the plate and give us a third hand tale of a 1000' plus fall their friend's buddy once witnessed?
  13. Will Gadd & friends just got the FA of this monster falls near Bella Coola. c. 300m free drop
  14. this is on the SW face, to the right of the Curtis glacier?
  15. the best winter climb is the one having the most fun?
  16. looks like OJ has a couple thin spots in that photo!
  17. 2 years later, made it to the creek crossing, lack of full moon meant i started up the terrain below the nesakwatches too far right. got cliffed out, bailed, back to the car around sunrise yet again. better conditions but still some breakable crust leading to knee-deepness. on the plus side i didn't take any gear for a walk this time! <-- coffee
  18. Your photos are of the first pitch of Rambles Central (WI3). Rambles Right is about 200m further right of this.
  19. Two words: O J here's a couple more words from Mos Def on that
  20. +7 at Hope Slide again today, warmer tomorrow! http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/trends_table/pages/wkv_metric_e.html

    OMG DID U HEAR THERE ARE GIANT ALLIGATORS IN THE SEWERS OF NEW YORK
  22. They still haven't found Amy Bechtel either... that's been like 10-12 years?
  23. Yo DJIA, don't let the beat drop
  24. The North Face route is a great winter climb but it doesn't make Ade's list because it is too easy. For some guys around here it is a ski route. There are plenty more winter routes than the NF. Like the Nelson-Lewis (i hope i got that FA party right?) on Nuttsack Tower
