Crackbolter

You know you're having fun when you can climb a mountain and go flyfishing all in the same trip. Now if I could figure out how to incorperate skiing and music into this scenario, I would bliss hard.

Yes

I thought I might chime in since I am one of those climber-who-packs-his-flyrod types. Check this out: http://www.watrailblazers.org/forum/viewthread.php?tid=62 Check their forum for more info on what to use, etc. I pack a flyrod because for the amount of energy it takes to haul it up there versus the amount of energy you gain from eating a fresh trout, it is worth it. It is still a gamble if there is some level of uncertainty about the contents to a particular lake but there are ways around that

There will be a group of 8 or 10 heading up with RMI that Friday and coming down the following Saturday. http://www.wildsalmon.org/about/summit.htm

Was that from this weekend? I thought that was from last year

After reading the ad, it does sound like me. The poetry isn't as good though.

Funny you'd take REI over other shops like Pro Mountain Sports or Second Ascent.

I remember the rope up.....LOL! Are you CRACKBOLTER????? Who me? And who are you???.....

I'm in the photo somewhere. Sorry haven't been climbing in a while. Slap, you're a paranoid freak. Post somethin'.

Hello Tony, I was there at the time of the incident as well as my roommate Dave Yount and his girlfriend Cheri Dunham. We were climbing close by and heard the commotion. I made an effort to help the EMT's in any way possible but they had everything under control. Let me know if you need anything. Sincerely, Tony Bentley tony (at sign) featheredfriends.com

Right On!! That looks like a fun route.

Bring RB's!!!!! Like 25 will do it and the drill holes don't have to be as deep! Second the glue and also tie offs for saplings. 3 mil cord prussik'd around the sapling should work. Lots of static line as well. Maybe a lawnchair for bivys.

It has been done twice by Pete Doorish and never repeated as far as I know of. Expect to haul weeks worth of aid gear and ropes. Expect 3 months of dedication to the route. Good luck to you.

Nice!

PP, That photo is awesome! That looks like really fun sport climbing. I'm guessing mid eleven to twelve. Perfect!

Okay, I have one. Just one more for the day....

Cool rock! Looks like hard mud. Is it in Wa?

so much for new photos for the game. Forgot them today. Anyone else? Slap you have some, fire away!

yup. very prompt. I'll try to find more tomorrow.

Walker Valley and Split Rock should be added. Both in the Arlington area.

Lets see if they know this one....
