Now that i take a closer look at your tracks i get it. Definitely the back side, west side. So, you didnt start the aret at the base, notch. You caught it a little farther up? Seems like a good late season way to do it.

Neat trip! I have been in that sherpa basin once. Pretty cool spot. How hard was it to access the nw arete of argonaut this late? For some reason i thought it required snow to get up the notch to the base of the route. That east ridge of sherpa is tedious.

Of course i only speak for myself. I do everything possible not to post in order to avoid an argument or get trolled. I stopped posting tr's because it was a pita to share photos. Now, that will change. I love the TR database. It's not just this site. Gravsports was wounded early and is practically dead. Only trolls seem to reside there now. Now it seems that everthing fbook and instgram are the only place to see things and i guess its because it is trendy and easy/shallow. I still come back here in hopes of seeing tr's and partner wanted posts. Maybe things will cycle back around.

Anybody want to climb tomorrow in the desert. Looks dry. Trad preferred but i can clip bolts too. Likely we won't be car pooling since I'm coming from the east side. Joe 2087559008

Yo Stemming Dragon. Not expecting you to reply to it, but i am curious if you received my PM. I am not sure my PM feature is functional. Let me know. Thanks! Joe

If you end up with any weekdays either side of those dates i would be down. Maybe later otherwise.

Seriously. Likely mine. Probably found at Middle East Wall.

Got a number or email?

Eric T. I too have suffered from cramps. I am in decent shape. I stayed hydrated. Electrolyte drinks didnt work. Salt stick tabs didnt work but, my shirts had nice white lines on them. Hot shot is likely snake oil. Usually i suffered from bicep and foot cramps while climbing. A while back i suffered a wicked hammy cramp while lying in bed. Several hours post bike ride. Not a long ride either by my standards. I told my dad about my leg cramp. He said "oh yeah, i used to get those. Now i take Calcium. All gone." Whatever Geezer. So, i skeptically started calcium. 600mg calcium carbonate with d3 from Costco. ALL CRAMPING HAS CEASED. I am sure i get the rda of calcium in my diet. Guess i needed some extra. This worked for a friend of mine too. All those electrolyte products focus on sodium and potassium. Not Calcium or Magnesium. Also electrolytes and important. If im gonna have a big day i take a couple calcium instead of one a day. Give it a try. Its a cheap experiment. Also, i started on mg too. Be careful with mg. it softens stools. I take one in the am. Theres a fine line between soft and uh oh.

Really? I would have thought it was rough after this last melt. Looks like it may cool off soon. What did you climb Paul?

My wife and I are going this year. I have heard nothing but positive reviews of the climbing and festival. We are flying to valdez due to using air miles for tickets. Otherwise I have heard that the Anchorage rental car tactic is best.

Oh yea! Email sent.

Anyone up for index or leavenworth either of these days. 9-11 sport or trad.

With copenhagen i spit. Does tinder work for trad climbers?

How hard is it to find a rock partner in Squamish? I may end up ther solo for a few days and i am wondering who has had luck there, what to do, etc. This topic should invite some healthy spray as well i am sure. Serious answers please.....

Anyone up for some trad or sport climbing in Vantage 5/2 and or 5/3? I have all of the necessary gear just lacking a partner. Joe 208 7559008

What would be the typical latest reasonable time you could use the sherpa glacier as your decent for the NR of Stuart?

Want to climb cracks or sport. Will be coming from Spokane. Anybody want to meet up. I will be there by 1000. Joe 2087559008

Whoever installed the chains and new access bolts for Crossing the Delaware, Thank You. I spent the day TR soloing yesterday and really enjoyed that climb. Since i didn't have a stick clip i could only do routes with easily accessed chains or i built the occasional anchor. Also, the new shitter is pretty nice....and full.

Having had crag dogs now for the last twenty years or so I can give two cents on this one. I have been a bad dog owner in the past. Off leash, not picking up shit, eating things, napping on ropes........... Now, bitches be leashed. Shit bags used. Ropes are still nappy places. My dogs get to be at the crag. I try to avoid the really popular areas. On that note, here are some tips for the non dog owners. Just because my dog is at the crag, you dont get to pet it. Please leash your dogs! OR have excellent voice control and know where they are at all times. This is rare. Control your kids! Like West Sidas, dogs are unpredictable and not always friendly. Caveat Emptor, All Dogs Bite! Its true. Just like your annoying snot nosed brats crying, dogs bark. Get used to it or go away. I will do my best to control my beast, leash. You should not set your pack full of food down beside them. In this order my boy Cooper will piss, eat, and eventually fuck your pack. So, be mindful of your shit. I was there first.

I have been using cobras for the past few years and like them. Anybody here used the new quarks and prefer them over the current cobras?

Lost a tool and need to replace it. Looking for current generation Cobra. If you got one for sale lets talk. Thanks
