I climbed a pumpkin:

No.

In winter and spring - nice snow. In summer and fall - downsloping ledges covered in gravel. Eryl Pardoe, who did the 3rd or 4th ascent of Slesse NE Buttress, was killed on the NE Face of ABP in 1970. In late summer.

OOps sorry. Pig Pen is the left hand of the twin cracks in your last pic. The climb with the roof is "Great Expectations" 5.9. I always get those two confused.

And it could be argued that it wasn't a chondrite until it was a meteorite. Its composition was unchanged in either form. And also while it was a meteoroid.

Actually, if your information is correct, then the meteor is more precisely refered to as a meteorite It's only a meteorite now. It was a meteor up until it made the crater.

It was only a flesh wound.

Homey at rizencreative.com probably posted more or less that same text on a couple dozen message boards this morning. I'd bet he's getting paid by the click.

A legitimate business pops on to CC.com offering free shit and all you can do is be a twat? WTF? If you read the fine print it doesn't say they are actually going to give out ANYTHING. It just says that you have to 1) click on their website, 2) do a bunch of viral marketing for them on your "site or blog" and that sometime in November they might decide to give out some clothing. Like maybe one jacket or something, to one person. Probably not you. Viral marketing hype is still teh suck.

SpaceWeather.com reports that the meteor was, in fact, a meteor. And the rock in it has been determined to be a chondrite. Markmckillop can jump in here and tell me I'm full of shit and it wasn't a chondrite at all.

of course, the possibility the woman drove the truck occurred to no one.

Yep don't forget Andromeda Strain is a IV.

I have news, the "5.8" chimney at Yin and Yang in Kraft Rocks is not 5.8 despite what the guidebook says. More like 4th class. If you want, just go to RR and climb Healy's Haunted House and Group Therapy, to the right of Tunnel Vision. If you can cruise both of those in one day then step it up for Epi.

Isn't Beyond Clothing = climbing naked? It seems like kind of a "not ironic just dumb" name for a clothing company. Like at least Beyond Fleece makes softshells rather than fleece but a company named Beyond Clothing should be genetically engineering humans to grow seal fur or goat wool or something.

I guess Bellingham is Canada.

It's really just a fuck load of scrambling with a couple pitches of 5.7 to add up to 2000m of elevation gain. Bivying on that is like bivying on a long hike to a short climb.

You go with two daisies (like normal, one to each aider) and one adjustable fifi. Then your daisies stay clipped full-length and full strength and you just winch up to each piece with the fifi while staying backed up. With adjustable daisies, you are replacing two full strength daisies with two body weight only links. Which sucks for a lot of reasons. It might be slightly simpler because you have 2 connectors off your harness instead of 3 (2 daisys + one adjustable fifi) but you are trading safety for simplicity. In either case you have the rope there I guess but I just think it's simpler to only have one adjustable thing to play with. Place piece, clip daisy to it, hook in fifi, winch in, hang/balance, place next piece, clip other daisy, hang, move fifi up and repeat. Really fast.

Adjustable fifi = Adjustable daisies = body weight only =

Hey NR of Stephens is legit at the grade if you don't rope up.
