wouldn't the natural resting place for the belayer's hand be below the device, ie, not locked off when belaying with a device off the anchor? All cool cats usin the Reverso now, auto-lock-off

3somes including clove-hitched bondage! AND daisy chains

oh, daler's 4" has got you hot, now you wanna brag about your 3somes Strongbuns, oh yeah, like that heart attack

But, but, but . . . If you ever climb as a party of three, having members on daisies or similar is essential to minimize cluster f'ups. I use both systems, sometimes AT THE SAME TIME If I'm feeling lazy I usually chain it

Okay, a SLIGHT problem in that reporting. The banner states: "One-third of Germans under age 30 believe the U.S. government may have sponsored the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington," While, in fact, the real wording of the questions was: "Asked whether they believed the U.S. government could have ordered the September 11 attacks . . ." i.e. Would the US have been capable not is it possible that . Figure out your fuckin MODALS people

Yes not always. Anchor sucks and the dynamics of a belay off the body will lessen force on anchor. Basically all falls I have ever caught have been arrested by my own weight. Just don't climb with tubbies, that's all! ***ACMG now advises all guides to clove hitch into the anchor as a daisy or chain is not meant to take a dynamic force. This is funny cause the person who told me this passed on advice from the ACMG two years ago stating that clove hitches were unreliable as primary anchors

2 against 1, you suck

Good stuff on sale in store you won't see on the webpage: Pamir bibs $135 CDN Primloft pullover $69 Also, they got new "Brio Plus" packs which looks very fine and are damn cheap (like $113 for 50 litre job) All you squamish-bound Yankies owe me a beer

This marmot was so accustomed to standing up for handouts from tourists it was practically bipedal

You mean I didn't have to pay to read your TRs? Sounds like a real piece of shit

I am leaving now for Urquhart

BASTARD!

Ahhh! An invasion!

Gimme PM action

Who wantsa come north for some exploratory-type stuff this coming weekend (July19-20). Rock routes, no choss, I promise!

I spent all of last week there, it wasn't that bad. You can always find somewhere in the shade. Just do the old siesta trick, climb in the early morn and evenings with a swim break at Coney Island at noon. You get in pretty good shape too, hiking the trail twice a day

Where's the gin? BH says you should take TWO toques

Yeah, well I burned some trees. In the alpine . Ahem And then the rain put the fire out

No, no, no. She said a granola bard:

Is the road now washed out before the boulders? Should've bought a mog . . . . .
