Nice TR Mr.E. Fun in the sun, lots of , some , some , lots of , and a bit too much ! It was great to climb with lots of different folks I'd never climbed with before including Pandora, BadVoodoo, The Muffster, and some non-cc.comer friends from PDX. I'll check my pictures soon and see if I got any good ones. p.s. I think the thing we toproped on Karate Wall is actually called "Crossfire". pps. Photos from BadVoodoo

Nice!

Nice TR BP.

Could someone who knows rbw1966's phone number please pm me ASAP? I promise not to call him too often with my sexy deep breathing...

DUDE! I think you have the scoop on shoes, now go buy a pair and post a trip report! CLIMB CLIMB CLIMB!!!

Is that Trask?

Keep in mind, Chris Sharma can probably climb 5.13 in flip-flops. Any shoe with modern sticky rubber on it is going to get the job done for you. By the time your technique outgrows your shoe, you will probably have trashed the shoe anyway. Good luck.

Number one priority for beginner rock shoes is COMFORT - you aren't going to be cranking on dime-edges, so you don't need your shoes super tight. After comfort, the next priority is to get shoes that match your lycra climbing tights. It's important to look good out there. Moccasyms don't have a lot of support - probably not a good all-day-in-the-mountains or beginner shoe. Go with something pretty stiff, comfortable, and board lasted. Boreal Aces are pretty popular and meet that criteria. Lots of good shoes out there, and frankly it doesn't matter that much what shoe you get as long as it is comfortable. Just CLIMB CLIMB CLIMB! p.s. I see on the sidebar that one of this website's sponsors is selling 5.10 Spires for $69. Probably not a bad choice if they fit you OK.

A "uniformed" secret is a military secret... you know, like the US's policy of torturing Iraqi captives.

Nice satan eyes there Gary. MUHAHAHAHA!!! ....and thanks for the shot of "coffee".

You mean this?:

Those are called "breasts" Klenke. You'll find out more about those when you get to be a big boy.

Some guy doing something: Klenke on the first ascent of the uber-heinous, "Elk Steak Boulder": Seasoned to perfection : MattP and Klenke flirtin' with the ladiez... they don't look impressed : ...and Forrest talks to a tall guy with a nose. Thanks to all the organizers, cooks, cleaners, slideshow presenters (Colin, will you take me to Patagonia?), beer providers, and various dirtbags and misfits that made this thing happen. Ya'll

This thing is gonna Who wants a ride!?!?!? Rideshare to Smiffy from Bellingham/Seattle p.s. Even canadians are welcome!

I was having a little fun with the calculator there. WOOOHOOO!!! Somebody stop me!

No sé cuánto cuesta para el gas. Perhaps MisterE can tell us the mpg of the "Shagin' Wagon"? According to yahoo driving directions, its 800 miles roundtrip from Bellingham to Redmond, OR. Assuming 25mpg and $2.15/gal, that is $36/two people, $24/three people, $18 for four people. Wirlwind/Dru, you guys should both come along! and and and Dru, You ain't gonna see many prana tops in da alpine! For catbirdseed: If we had a mol of people in the car, the cost would only be $8.349041 * 10^-17 /person!

You pansy, you better show up! You'll have to sit off to the side in your plastic bubble to avoid infecting all of us, but you should still show up. I hear elk steak has curative powers.

You should wear it and then we birkenstock-wearin' hippies can throw you in the lake and poor patchouli oil on your head. You will be annointed.

MisterE will be leaving Bellingham on Thursday afternoon or evening and picking me up in Seattle Thursday evening and we will be coming back on Sunday evening. If anyone would like to come along and help a couple of paupers cough up $2.17/gal for gas, please send a pm to MisterE or me.

Yes, the esteemed ropegun (MisterE) and I will be driving down from Bellingham/Seattle on Thursday evening. Seeing as how gas is $2.17/gal, I'm poor, and I just got a $44 parking ticket , it sure would be nice to have another passenger or two to share expenses. Anyone care to join us? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE??? send a pm to me or MisterE if you are interested.

Nice TR! lockin' da keys in da

He looks like he's wearing a glad-bag superman cape. Perhaps hypoxia is setting in?
