  1. yeah it was... before they just took the hangers and i was thinking how dangerous that was... especially if soemone led up there to find they were missing... what is the lefebre erratic? bouldering action? never heard of it.
  2. That style of climbing out of a mud pit only to discover someone stole all the hangers? Go to Hatzic instead... granite... bumper belay.... yeah i was climbing there before the SAR guys jacked the hangers... they even took the lead bolts. actually i dont care cause i would rather go elsewhere... i just remember climbing there when it was snowing and i hated everyminute cause i was hangdoggin'
  3. i think technique has something to do with it... as does how clean your rope is. if you keep your hand to the side of it while belaying there is much more friction... if you run it down the middle there is much less friction. the dirty rope will wear it down much much faster... imbeded particles continually rubbing the metal... also not good for the rope. just a thought. dont know what your scenario is.
  4. That's what they all say. "It's too hot!" "It's too cold!" "It's too greasy!" "It's too steep!" "It's too slabby!" "It's a crack!" "It's too knobby!" "It's too technical!" "It's too powerful!" "It's too sharp!" And in the end, "I just suck." and i suppose you can pull down 13's every place you have ever been ace? have you been there? no and..... no
  5. sumas mountain... i struggle up the easy 10's there... but it is a shit heap anyways... i hate that style of climbing.
  6. how can you lower a bar that is already on the ground? Get out your shovel and start digging? i think the already hit the sewage pipe.

  13. or that.
  14. but again that is encompassed by my "his aides' theory... i dont think he lied directly, but he is responsible for the lie given he trusted the wrong people to do his research for him... its all semantics, but i wouldn't say he lied directly.

    i'm a...

    That would make you the crankcase, then?
  16. i still blamed bush there cheif, but i hear what you are saying...
  17. cut off the bells and whistles... that is what i did to my serratus. i cut off almost a pounds of latches and shit off my big load bag.... it was a very inexpensive pack... i figured that if i hada pack that big, i wouldn't need daisy chains and shit to strap things on cause they would be going in my pack... i even cut off the bottom compression strap. since i put my sleeping bag there anyways. centai 2 moya
  18. sunday monday or tuesday... lemme know... i should be there all thsoe days, but i will be with my sister and she is not up for it...
  19. Just for fun.... Why accuse Bush of lying when some guy responsible for military propaganda blew the thing out of proportion? I find it hard to believe that Bush would have know everything about the attack when (if) he made such a statement. More likely, I can see him being told by some anonymous messenger "This is Lynch, she was ambushed, fought back, etc, etc. Congratulate her, it's good PR." Seems pretty unlikely that he would go through verifying EVERYTHING before making a short statement, he's got better things to do. It's politics, for God's sake. Then again, I can't vote, so you should probably ignore me. i agree (though i am ashamed to admit it commign from the source). it is ridiculous to believe that Bush can verify all of his statements with primary sources... he is talking quite litterally all day... it is his fault though indirectly as he appointed his aides and in doing so said that he trusted their 'politics' my 2 cents.
  20. whatever it is a good way to find out if you are up for the bigger shit where there isn't a big weather window or moving fast is totally fucking necessary because of obvective hazards or something...
  21. Seems to me the real value of pushing it for speed is broadening and deepening your own knowledege of your limits and capabilities--something that can come in mighty handy at a time you're faced with the harsh and unexpected.You never know what you can do till you try--or until you have to. ----------------------------------- "Time is nature's way of keeping everything from happening at once."
  22. YOU LIVE IN HELL TOO??? IS TRASK YOUR DADDY as well??? yes... uhm... i think so... was he ever a milk man?
  23. you go girl rasta dun spoke.
  24. Hold on, Scotty. Put down that pipe for a moment. Where did I EVER say you aren't american? What the fuck you talkin about? As for getting your ass kicked, I'll be at Index this weekend; I'll take my large cams in case I see a skinny dipshit standing around. i'm looking for a belay slave... so i'll keep an eye out for ya!
