  1. ok, so my wednesday job was cancelled....anybody for tomorow? 509 899 1024 check last post for details
  2. can get a free day this week except wednesday....lworth, wapass, index...prefer routes that require one knot per day....don't send a resume, numbers won't impress me...partners who "climb your 60 meters and shut the fuck up"(r.larson, 2003) impress me call (509) 899 1024
  3. anyone headed over hwy 2 might want to stop at coles corner and get some fresh chantrells ($3.50/lb)from tim and clay at natural wonders (the place with the basalt columns planted in the dirt)...if you ask nice they might cough up some pine mushrooms also....i had some in my omelette this morning...scrumptious...there is a hand crack to bolder between two of those collumns...
  4. still whining about that dreadfull disrespect for dan...perhaps some history is in order.......the first ascent was done by Dan Davis and Pat Callis in 1963, 20 pitons and 3 bolts (no hangers)..hence the name..oddly enough it was first free climbed by a guy named dan, that of course is irrelevant...replace the original three bolts and leave the route for those bold enough to try it...i have always wanted to try it, and someday i will...when i am mentally and physically prepared on a day i happen to be there...the faggotty retro-bolts were an abomination, and an insult to climbing...modern gear protects most anything these days, and if it doesn't use the nuts in youur pants(or uterus if you have one)or try something else ..... as far as power drills in the wilderness, its poor fucking style...its like trying to justify a dirtbike in the wilderness...again an insult to our sport, get real... same goes for rap bolting big faces in the mountains, too lazy to aid climb and drill your bolt ladder on lead hugh?....pathetic...these discussions are ridiculous, a bunch of lame people trying to justify lame actions....why can't people have a little self respect and do things with good style....fucking supersize everything attitude sucks... in the past few years i have seen more pathetic bolting than ever in lworth, i climb past bolts and place bomber gear right next to them far to frequently, not the case a few years ago....even viktor and gordon had enough self respect not to do that shit in years past, now they push it beyond reason because there is a consortium of sissys who justify it because they never actually learned to climb but still want to be climbers...dude i send 5.10, that's all they want is a number... a matter of fact i find this shit on routes i onsited in the dirt years ago..i've never chopped a bolt in my life but if i had nothing better to do i'd chop that shit in a heartbeat...luckily for the guilty (which includes the clippers not just the drillers) i have better things to do than clean up after some self-sodomizing pathetic weasle that is unwilling to climb in good style and stick to what they can handle....but if it gets any worse i just might go and chop all that crap, and i 'll chop it again if i have to...i'll chopchopchop till their all gone...i'll chop everything they ever bolted and there would be nothing to stop me....why? because i am a self riteous prick who focuses on climbing in good style...go ahead chop the half dozen bolts i've placed, if you can get to them....in my world its all about style, not numbers, not nameinabook, just good style...go ahead start a war..you'll loose...just cuz you think you were "first" doesn't mean you have the right to wreck it..... i should mention that i do enjoy face climbing bolt protected lines, those done in good style...someone mentioned robbins earlier...that primadona drilled just as many bolt ladders as harding, i've climbed a few, his bolts are farther apart than hardings, but he is like a foot taller than warren...duhhh...robbins just whinned about the ones harding got to first...there is nothing wrong with a bolt ladder anyway, no other pro and done on lead...to the summit old man i say!!!!someone will free it someday...or clip past that insignificant little section of an otherwise stellar line
  5. leavenworth...castle to midnight...today call 509 899 1024
  6. oh come on pete...we actually encountered very little dirt and vegetation filled cracks...there was almost no dirt in the eyes, no raccoon faces, and very little dirt in the garments upon completion....one of the cleaner fresh lines i've done around here
  7. 2000 awd passanger astro van...75 k miles....propane tank(underneath), sweet catalytic heater, outside stub for coleman stuff, queen futon and custom frame slides right out the back to switch to regular seating...white...$10,000, we need a family car now not a funmobile...i set this up for long climbing trips
  8. yea it looks like about 3-5 people interested so far for different days...you would be 6...if you come over here there will be a party to climb with
  9. just don't climb it...let the invalid route rot in obscurity, there action deserves no attention whatsoever...chopping the bolts for them would be like cleaning up the mess after someone sodomized themselves...i hear their looking for a mop-boy in the alley behind Dick's...if you like that sort of thing..
  10. there is a fair amount of snow in the enchantments, less as you you move to the east edge....wedge, mcclellan, etc...icicle ridge looks fine...with that in mind my number is listed in cashmere if you want to climb over here or email dcapp@tumwater.net..
  11. can climb anyday next couple weeks....no clients, no dates, no gapers, no crackbolters (unless you like ridicule)....anything from alpine fa's to meager cragging dcapp@tumwater.net
  12. who wants to climb in the enchantments/stuarts this weekend...3 or 4 days....first ascents, hard classics, the whole range, whatever dcapp@tumwater.net
  13. doesn't smoot have one of these? you could simply offer to help him update that site.. names are actually good beta since many humans climb in poor style......i prefer routes done in good style..... otherwise you need software sponsors.....look at map zoom in get beta query choose....climb....simple...no spray...no metrip report crap...just beta...approach send decend.......
  14. i have to make a couple corrections with regards to approach, route and descent....although no raps were used (hence the danger), it was clear from the speed with wich ben descended that short rappells are in order....also the approach is far from heinous (unless of course you are a fatass), just hike up to nada lake than up to temple canyon (all trail), ascend a couple hundred feet up steep heather to base of tower..this climb is best as an afternoon tick after the hike in to temple canyon, for a presumably more significant objective the following day....the route is classic enchantments, 5.9+, and although north facing, it is far from choss...i will forever refer to the route as "The Pellet" in reference to the way that owl coughed up ben on our way down....
  15. i've got two .5 u-stem juniors with new trigs and slings, i'll trade for a red and an orange metolius tcu dcapp@tumwater.net
  16. portable coleman 1750+ pulse generator....never used 3-4yr old model, not enough zip to run my wellpump so it collects dust...would be great for obnoxious campers or roadside bolting with a corded hammer drill...make an offer, comparable new ones are $400...
  17. sorry erik....although you are certainly lazy and that girl obviously spoils you (or you wouldn't be in the mo-zone)i am keeping the whale packs in case the pilsberry ben boy swells up again, he can use them.........the dog packs, however, need to go
  18. truely sorry about your boys letting you down
  19. avalanche danger is extreme over here right now...the snow has been relentless...be aware that hubba hubba is an avalanche trough...not recomended until it has scoured...and so is the approach to drury...otherwise cold temps prevail and should continue for some time...patience young jedi....
  20. the bureau of reclamation used dynamite to destroy all of the existing ice climbs...apparently they are sick of us...don't bother driving over there this weekend...the ice is gone.....
  21. dog packs...never really used, the dog is lazy and spoiled....the ones with the wrap around vest deal that the packs attach to...for medium to big dog...$50 or b.o....
  22. for everyone who missed it (embarassingly enough because you had to be in canada to catch the game).....the usa scored a gold medal victory over canada for the men's junior hockey worlds !!!!! take that drew!!!! wish you were ther so i could have rubbed it in....although there were plenty of whining canadians around to laugh at.....
  23. momma thought i'd grow or something, WISHFULL THINKING.....i wear 81/2 sneaKER THESE ARE TOO BIG...NOT SURE WHAT SIZE BUT WOULD PROBABLY FIT SIZE 10 SNEAKERFOOT...THEY ARE SLIGHTLY USED....FINALLY CONFISTCATED MY WIFES PAIR THAT ACTUALLY FIT
  24. i have a pair of fivestep aiders i don't use...there in fine shape...make me an offer dcapp@tumwater.net
