I think you are talking about pitch 5 (5.7 8 bolts, staying left of the bush). We had the same issues as the leader ran the rope almost all the way out without finding the anchor. You've got to commit to making that last tree protected move to the right to see the anchors. We bailed after p6, and rapping p5 left us with only a couple feet of rope at the anchor. Next party up there should bring a wrench to tighten a few bolts.

Whoa. Aren't you hard core.

Who really gives a flying f*ck?!? Obviously you don't have a life.

Nope. You can park there with a DFW Vehicle Use Permit, which is cheaper than a fishing permit.

Always (except TRing in the gym). Seen belayers get hit by falling rocks. Seen lead climbers fall awkwardly and smack their head. Had folks kick off rocks randomly from above. Ice chunks are always flying in the wintertime. Banged my helmeted head on roofs when climbing around them. Helmets like the Petzl Meteor fit well and weigh little. I can't waste any more brain cells.

Petzl Vasaks.

Your mama is drytooling.

Hi. My penis is this long: 8============> Can I go?

I'd say the big turning point occured on the 2nd ascent of The Disappearing Floor route on Mt. Hardy, a climb inspired by Dan and Forrest's TR here on the forum. 50ft out, pulling a 5.10 mantel very much at my limit, onto a ledge which looked more like a litterbox, is the first time I REALLY had to keep it together, and it all started here. Serious fwappage.

Serious rc.com material. And you think you are superior?

The cut of the OR jacket blows goats.

If you're in Seattle, there's a store called Second Ascent that sells used climbing shoes.

What's the latest on the unobtanium picks?

Wait till you try an eVent jacket. Rab makes the best. Westcomb blows goats.

Quite the debate skills you've got there. You're standard tactical retort is ad hominem attacks. No, don't worry. I don't expect an intelligent response.

And if you climb at Tieton, bring a set or two.

Wal-Mart sells an excellent line of track jackets that work just fine. No need to overspend just for the squashed bird logo. Leave that for the poseurs.

Why do you support these multi-millionaires?

A single twin works fine.

Reminds me of when the free climbers were leaving their ropes draped over the route instead of coiling them up at the end of the day.

That's only for sponsored climbers.

Is Rudy not available?
