  1. Pretty soon tourists will be asking "How do you get the magnets up there?"
  2. It's not bowling, it's shuffleboard!
  3. bullet time. take the red pill.
  4. The bolted crack looks a lot like Vantage. Maybe they are preparing for first Korean ascent of Red M&Ms.
  5. Another reason not to buy the guidebook. Why is a person's desire to help others find God a reason not to buy the guidebook? What's your deal? Christians killed, raped, and ate Choada Boy's whole family when he was just a baby, and he was raised by an order of ninjas specifically to revenge himself on them.
  6. curled up and died, sure. like a salted slug
  7. how did that shot of marble canyon on a busy weekend (4th pic) get thrown in there? classic french technique in the first two
  8. ummmmm... one of the proper responses to such a tragedy is to try to prevent such a thing from ever happening again, no? the left says less guns would help the right says more guns would help you say we can't even discuss it... how is your response any better?
  9. Has al-Qaeda claimed responsibility yet?
  10. Maybe the best option would be to not develope a route near this particular feature if it's soooo scary then.
  11. PP was 11a on gear, 10d on bolts could be more accurate because you don't have to hang on as long to frig the nuts in.
  12. How can there by a consensus grade for Elastic Man without a consensus height and a consensus ape index? 11a if you can make the reach and 11c++ if you can't
  13. It's ben 10c in every guide but McLane's latest and it isn't 10d now in reality, just in his odd grading system.
  14. We're talking about at the Pet (which was wet on Saturday BTW) not some crummy Index climb with the same name
  15. even steven is 10c
  16. keep your spray in spray kevbone, and let the grown-ups talk about grown-up things, k?
  17. yeah... i bet you ripped those 5.5's up with your "massive" biceps... There's only one route rated 5.5 in the Bluffs, and there was a lineup for it
  18. Basalt is choss and this is granite Bill. There's a reason the Crooked River flows around Smith... cause it's so much easier to erode the basalt than the tuff.
  19. i climbed some squamish cracks. the bluffs were sunny and dry and best of all there were hardly any Americans around!
  20. if the flake was 1 inch wide and the crack behind it was 6 inches wide, trundling it or bolting next to it might become more attractive, but a 6 inch thick flake of the dimensions you indicate with only a 1-2 inch crack behind it is bomber... (or even a 3-4 inch crack behind it)
  21. By "the first pitch" do you mean The Fault, or the pitch below The Bone?
  22. plus all the extra deaths of bystanders caught in the crossfire!
  23. Tofino is mostly lacking in cragging. The rock is crappy and the hazard of getting swept into the sea by large waves is not to be discounted. There are some semi-protected areas on the back of headlands to scramble around on but I wouldn't bother bringing shoes or a mat. The Mackenzie Range has some good alpine rock in the summer though.
