didya find my neutrino? It was next to the porn stash by the simulated goat at the anchors?

hardest thing i worked for? hmmm...there are many, but i'd have to say it was the second pitch of a route that i was expecting it to be 5.7 (turned out to be mid 10-ish)...i'd been climbing for about 4 months at the time, and the hardest thing i'd done was a 5.8, my buddy had done the first pitch and i was gonna do the second, easier pitch...i thought i was gonna die, i puked when i topped out...the top out itself was scary, very scary and sandy...i had never fallen on gear before, so i had no idea what worked...drag was bad, could barely move... when we got home that night i looked in the guidebook which we'd forgotten and saw that the 5.7 pitch cut LEFT from the belay...the route wound up being 5.10 and was steep, cutting up a dihedral and topping out in a notch THis is my most memorable climb to date... the route was Fantasy direct at the NRG...it lit a fire under me that hasn't stopped for almost 20 years now... Oh...and chuck...are you done diddling yourself? Feel better?

go fuck yerself...that should get entertaining...

what your hardest route done in terms of work/effort/etc. (and it can be ongoing)...doesn't have to be the hardest rating, but has to be the hardest for YOU... bored and this should make for some good discussion...

...oh, amd there is a "ringing" endorsement...

i'm not as eloquent (or mouthy) as that broad, DFA, is...sorry, i suck as your publicist...

2005: climb more days than not. (weather permitting that is, i wouldn't want to get too cold, too wet, or too hot ) You'll just get hurt...

From a local (Matt Lambert) of Medford/Ashland area... "The Rogue Valley is an awesome place to live, if you are too liberal or yuppy/hippee/trendy/touristy for Medford you can allways move into Ashland, which is very similar to towns like Leaveworth, Monroe or North Bend, you know...artsy fartsy with good lattes on every corner. I have lived in many great towns all over the country and personally I think you can't beat the Medford/Ashland area. Especialy if you like to go skiing, rock climbing, Mt. Biking and kayaking in the same day in the middle of February. We are opening a new climbing gym in Medford which is going to be awesome, plus the local climbing ain't shabby....as good as anything within 1hr of Seattle or San Fran, IMHO. Smith is 3.5 hours easy and Yosemite is 7.5 flat with one gas-up stop. Here is the site for our new gum opening in July. It is going to be as good as anything in Seattle, only a bit smaller and more suitable to this community. PUSH for more INFO

errr, eavesdropped....DFA made climbing quotes for encouraging Distel ("a noted hardcore boulderer") to go for an FA of a yak...
