i know climbers are warped and all...but sheesh... so you wonder is that the median or the average? Cuz you look at the obesity figures and my bet is that its where the bell shape really does fall...

Apparantly the average american male can not even do one pullup?!? WTF?

i think that'd be squamish 10-

it makes bleary eyed driving over the passes more sketchy...plus i have to fight the entire portland skier base coming home from the slopes to get over hood! Snow sucks (but i like cold weather)

and those bolts!!! Goddamned snowboarders boltin' everything in sight!!!

hopefully not as it will screw up the craggin'!

That's kinda like an Index "11" or a squamish "12" (<-- just givin' Dru shit!)

hahaha...that's funny...you drove right over the meadows gorge to get to summersville from the NRG!! Its really quiet and peaceful at the meadows and very shady w/ excellent swimming holes...locals only as there isn't a guide...mainly mixed and trad only routes... Having lived there for many years, its my favorite area in that vicinitiy...HUGE ROOFS (but on trad!) as big as the apollo zone and the glory hole...

I can't this weekend, i owe my wife at least one weekend of solid rest from the kids...i was contemplating going this friday for one day, but the weather looks hideous... I'll be there the weekend (a whole one too!) right after turkey day...

ahhh...the new and summersville!!!! HOT DAMN!! Did you check out the Meadows??????

Hey Petey...you need to haul Eric T. down there too...he's all about pimpin da crimps!

hahahaha...bring it, Petey!!! How's the one-arm going? Got two the other day w/ my right...only one on my left

boo hiss just 'nutha fuggin' NCA

cuz i suck and its expensive...

CLIMB... Goddamnit...two snowflakes and you guys go all flaky...WTF???? minx and RuMR -> at a certain point PM's become more appropriate.

Yeah...no shit...fuck ice...its about sunny rock...

Yeah, but usually my weenie fingers hurt so bad the next day that i get sick just thinking about locking down on another razor...so one day rulez... Plus, my kids get to screw around in the gym on sunday...

Same distance whether you drive for a day or go for two!!

First date w/ my future wife...3 month roadtrip...Smith, then Cave, then redrocks, then utah, then shelf, then rifle, then hiking in montana...Pretty much had our honeymoon...

Cracks Mono's Just kiddin'...its all good...

SUPER COOL...just leave the poptarts at home Seriously, lets hit smiff sometime...you can meet and talk w/ Alan, the father of american sport climbing, and hard hard crack climbing...

Yo Oly...what's with logic? That left the room about 25 pages ago...

If you are capable of 5.12 or better, you are prepared for the Bachar Yerian. If you can't climb those grades, you'll need more bolts. You can climb out of control, with more abandon and confidence, you can risk trying a move that you might not really be ready for. In short, you can be a physically weaker climber and climb a heavily bolted route for a given grade. Why use any pro at all then pope?? Why? Why do you get to decide how much is just enough??? THisiz a stupid stance... Now wait a minute, you're the guy always accusing me of being Captain Hyperbole! Touche`!
