  1. dude, it's like, hot or something at smith right now, right?
  2. Where does the route start in this pic? I've heard some people have a hard time finding it. the idea is to get into that whitish bowl in the middle of the picture, then work right onto that incipient ridge that looks more like a series of little peaks btw, the view from the arete of what happens to that bowl in the midst of a violent rain-storm is truly impressive - make sure yer will is writ if you ever plan on bivy'n there
  3. fuck - a whole damn month in the fall? bastards!

    i thought it took gear too? or someone did hte whole thing just w/ gear? at any rate, jim is representative of all humans, and as the poet said, it is a fool who looks for logic in the chamber of the human heart
  6. boooooring! guys, it's cc.com , can you please be monkeys that fling poo at each other?! ken probably didn't need no stitches no-how, he no-doubt had all the requisite pain-killers - i brought a staplegun on denali, sounds like ya'll oughta start rolling w/ one
  7. i sense a story is held back will always have the softest spot in my heart for this climb - mike braiding my hair at the bivy w/ his my-little-pony brush - the carefreeness - the innocence - the deathblocks rattlign down on me as i belayed him near the top - the anti-anchor i had once bringing him up to me - the "what?" when told i had to jump onto the glacier at the end of our last not-so-quite-lng-enough rap - percocet and absolute abscene of being on the walk out - the most hungover drive home, b-ham to p-town, in 100 degree heat in the history of man so spill, whahappen?!?
  8. nope, i never free anything you know i don't rag on you like the peanut gallery, esse, just flip'n'you yer minumally deserved shit - and you are seriously missing out on experiencing some of the sweetest parts of the Big B if you're stickign to some sorta "i shalt not aid" ethic - at any rate, the next pitch is about hte same rating as pipeline p1 i recall, the thinnest part at the start being nearly identical, ableit w/ a fuckload more exposure, so you could proably do it if you wanted, its just gonna be grungy the last pitch at any rate is hella cool at 9+, and yes, even a godless sodomite like me has got up it sans aid at any rate, the point is you can't judge the upper jensens anchors, which ya did seem to be doing, w/o having been up there...
  9. nice! not thinking my wife will ever be making that walk w/ me though betyer wifes weren't calling that superior peak la cunt though!
  10. btw, joe, if you want some company on somma that shit (and ye wanna climb up to, rather than rap down into, them) i'd be happy to lend a hand, especially the ones i mentioned
  11. i doubt our dear boy kevin has gotten a pitch more up on that there route - it lacks the beauty of pipeline (again, the first picth) and yes, the pitches above the first anchors all have b.s. (the final ones are 1/4 inchers) and no slings/rings
  12. anarcho-capitalism is the purest form, yes?
  13. dude, why so aggro? niggaz' just asking for opinions at the moment there are some rotting anchors left of and slightly above my "it takes a village" anchor - not certain what ever they were there for, but mayahp replace and figur eit out?

    Bacon dust...

    i've always thought bacon bubble-gum is The Next Big Thing
  17. why? there's excellent gear to be had there, including a directional that takes any fall off the anchor anyhow, and a fat ledge to belay from at any rate- beacon tradition seems to be to eschew bolts in such case (like on tree ledge). i'd get jim's ok at any rate before doing it (funny, i didn't even notice those pins were there till the 3rd time i did the route ) most of the bolt stations on jensen's ridge are horrorshows and are impossible to bail off of in case of emergency lead bolts on fresh squeeze and (the 2nd) on pipedream are super-sketch, as is the upper anchor on pipedream most of the hangers on the norseman's head pitches on stephenwulf are dangerous i'd dig on having the last flight time anchor replaced (and the shrubbery cut out) as i've been wanting to do that for awhile but have beendoing other things b/c of them
  18. wait! i learned awhile ago not to laugh at ken afte rhe gets hurt - it makes'em cranky, so that was just for you dave! ken, did that fucker take stitches? looks narsty!
