gotta disagree... its one thing if its a group of buddies out for an afternoon of fun...its completely another thing for an organization to preemptively monopolize an area or crag... its the principle of who was there first...ie, if i get to a cliff before the mountie toolz i have first dibs and they can fuck off and go somewhere else, regardless of what their little preplanned calendar and trip list says... I love it...they "declare" that they are going to an area on such and such a date and get out of their way...

jeezus... and top roping is an excellent way to learn to be a decent climber... I think it woulda been funnier if the "gangbanging" crew would have told you "No, each one of us 9 people are going to pull the rope and lead it"

if he sticks with it...we'll see... i have to give props to Tyson and the vw team...i think they are slipping them steroids in their kool ade!

he climbs cracks already...

he wanted to lead it but i said "no, not today"...

what did you wind up calling that route? what rating? right now, we are calling it 11b and "the rope swing route" because of the rad swing off the anchors...

Yes...he just turned 9 two weeks ago...Kevin...i can't describe how cool it is to go cragging with your son and buddies...it ROCKS!

its between stevens pass and leavenworth...

Did you take your kids there, NOLSe?

i need at least a season to prep for that thing...

Just past pluto...

Nason Ridge...

there are several SuperCracks© that are famous... Eight #3's????? WTF... Try like 4 or so...

BD's junior harness...its pretty good...downsized momentum sit harness... they can't lead in it though...

I wonder if Bush ever asks himself that in the morning after reading the newspaper...oh wait, dumb muthafucka can't read, can he??

:cry: :anger: :cry:

working on this f-ing job!!

MOUNTIES! ATTENHUT!!!!!! A T T A C K ! ! !

bob....those all are offshoots in one way or another of the economy...

I think Fairyweather is secretly sweet on dear ol' bob...he gets all warm and fuzzy...

yup...glad to see you're a 'bama supporter too!

God I hate that. Good thing Karl Rove's around to "keep it real". Obama's supporters are typically more emotional less reality-grounded. Yeah, you are right, i'm so goddammed pissed off at the current republican administration that it will be a loooooong time before i'd consider another one...

you speaking relationships?
