  1. hold up there Mr. Strickland you can not start asking that question till at least page 4.
  2. Which start?
  3. I'll trade a pad for tickets to Sweden, pic from same place
  4. The answer actually quite simple. If you find booty don't read cc.com for a couple of days and the lost and found for a couple of weeks after that. That way you never have to make any moral decisions. Granted this runs the risk of missing classics like the neutrino thread. I also like to be real brief with any climbers I meet in the parking lot.
  5. If you know how to jam classic will feel easy for 5.8. If you do angel on a cool day and are the first one on it 10a feels right. Dogleg does feel stout for 5.8 harder then most 5.9 i think. In fact I always think dogleg feels harder than meatgrinder which is the "10a" to its left.
  6. I bet if we try really hard we can get this thread to go for 5 full pages. That would be sweet, a discussion on the grade of the most climbed multipitch route in the state going for 5 pages. I would say the traverse pitch is like 5.9 b/c or m5 or 5.7 c1
  7. okay I'm bored so I will bite WA- Really enjoyed west face of news the line is really asthetic, and rebel yell the headwall pitch ruled thought ebd on sews was kinda lame, bolts and short pitches leavenworth- enjoyed fault-midway link up no loose rock vaired climbing with emphasis on easy chimneys loathed r & D route can you say gravel alpine south face of prussik rules- solid granite crack climbing doesn't get much better, hands to chimney east ridge of forbidden was some loose rock, some solid, not that exposured, felt like I could have blamed off to the north side and hiked to the summit at anypoint = contrived
  8. yeah I just noticed that. That data was for the 5-12. It just started raining hard in bothell
  9. http://www.skycabins.com/currentweather.htm shows no prec. in the last 24hrs which I find hard to believe since it rained in bothell over night.

    Squid you do realize merely by posting that on cc.com makes you not a squid by that definition. Posuer
  11. at I 5.9 wouldn't call it sandbag at all, just 5.9 climbing that relativly straight forward. I always find the technical crux to be the finger crack at the top, which you can bipass.
  12. yeah, I know there are few 10b's just not many, but there are plenty of 10a's that feel hard for 10a ie Sagiturus, libra and even some 10c's that feel easy for 10c, ie both 10c cruxs of davis holland. Kinda like how smith has a lot of 10b's and not many 10c's. oh and I thought that pitch 2 of city park was 10b/c, also your forgetting the last pitch of nad in your 10b count unless it gets something less in that guide.
  13. how hard is thin fingers, if you sucks as I do, and always bipass the 11a face via the 5.8 traverse. i say 10b except nothing gets rated 10b at index so you have to chose between 10a and 10c. i chose 10c, Discuss
  14. where is American Pie? difficutly and style would also be appreciated

    Hold on here Squid. Although most in cc.com firmly hold the position that Dwayner isn't a climber. I vaguely remeber Dwayner posting an account of him and Pope climbing piton tower and another of there approach and descent of dreamer tr a few years back. But maybe this doesn't count since he is not climbing multiple times per week? Which raises the question if Dwayner goes climbing and no one but Pope is there to see it, did he really climb? I'm so confused best leave this stuff up to you experts.

    i suck

    The funny thing is it isn't the sporto/gyming climbing types who fall the lead test but the "hard" crusty mountain types because they don't think about back clipping, even when you remind them and gym climbing is what it is, sometimes fun sometimes not but lets spray about how we are to cool for it
