ahhhhhhhh hand be a Kleenex -great stuff! -
Wayne, check yer PM's. Chad dude: I understand that a #7 nut is still available:-)
-
but the bone is somewhat of a TRADitionalist. JS, I tweaked my finger. Do you need a drinking buddy while ya recouperate? BTW, keep my post about Jimmy O having the gear below the radar, JO hates internet spray as much as he dislikes the big Aliens that eat the little aliens.

I always stretch out in my car while on a drive to a climb. I was stretching my fingers while on the freeway and did it then, before I was even close to the crag, but climbed anyway. Its the tendon ON TOP of the finger, not the one every normal person tweaks - so I can crimp hard until it reaches a tight arc, then it screams in pain on the TOP of the finger. Darnest thing, I can just bend it with no weight and it feel the same! Moral of the story, cars cause injuries.

Next time. I did it stretching on the way over. I have it fully taped with athletic tape right now, perfect for flipping all of you beyotches off. So at least there is a practical side to things. However - no climbing tonight for me.

European dude. Eurospiders. Eurotrash. Not Asian, although they may be heading that way next. You got the rest of it right but forgot that there are also 2 kinds of aliens inhabiting the earth right now. The big ones and the Greys. Greys are the little ones, which the big ones eat, and they eat an occasional human as well. And you call yourself a teacher..... ______________________________________________________________ Jim also has Stewart's stuff - young Chris pulled it off and gave to Jim. Evidently a #7 stopper held the fall and is now fixed as a testament to both the strength of stoppers, and as a way to commemorate Stewarts fall. Praise be it wasn't an Alien, or you'd have been lunch eh? Damn RIGHTEOUS CHRIS!

Were you able to use Raindawgs new protection tool and avoid the bolts? They say it sucks, but I haven't confirmed this. Thanks for the directions!
-
Some of those people look the same. You folks got in some nice areas, how about some climbing pics and stories.
-
ACTUALLY, THEY ARE CURRENTLY HEAVILY INFECTING ALL OF THE AREAS WHICH I ENJOY CLIMBING AT. Bu not at any of the sucky places which you all can crowd into and get on no worries. You folks are all on notice now. Currently that list is Beacon, the Butte, and Ozone. Broughtons is OK, I don't climb there much - the climbing is good, and there are nO spiders. These things came down from CAnada eh. Hobo spiders.

Moses: ya gonna be adding to the other 613 commandments now? I can't remember the first 10.

Main note: Well, the big news is that the route on the left looks like the block which the rap anchor bolts are in is not long for the world. Sometimes that kind of thing is hard to guess....but still. BUT, you can clip the anchor bolts to the right , and belay off to the side, not under the thing. Side note: Tweaked my middle finger. Which is gonna make both pleasuring myself and flipping you assholes off much more difficult. ice and ibuprofen - ice and ibuprofen ice and ibuprofen ice and ibuprofen It was only Ujahn, Davidhiers and I representin last night. David gives good belay FYI. Also, the group of poison oak top center looked like it was partially sprayed months ago, is damn near totally dead now, and you don't have to climb in it to clip the anchors! Nice! I would advise Clif to NEVER EVER climb here, as the base is in the zone which gets regularly and totally 100 percent sprayed with herbicide by the Railroad, and since they own the property, you won't get them to stop. Now don't be a hypocrite, best just stay away. Edited to say - thanks Mel ! catch ya next time.

(spoken in Braveheart voice) Hold....Hold..... HOLD...HOOOLLLLD! ...HOOOOOOLLLLD!

Thanks Jeff! Hope to see you, but if not, maybe you can go get Stewarts gear !

Anything worth saying once is certainly worth saying twice.

fucking Camels

Yup, right there. Should I bring a rotohammer? Last time I was there, one of the top anchors had a broken section of rock, and had a single bolt for an anchor. Should be good by now.....you'd think.
-
Ujahn and I will be at Lake Oswego after work Tues if anyone wants a belay.
-
Can I have your cams Can I borrow your cams? Uhhh, how long will you be laid up Jon?
-
Nahhh, it's always good to hear from you:-0
-
Thanks for the early heads up CC ! Were you belaying Stewart this time? Sorry, re-read it and saw the "TCU" spelled out. I've been taking MY Yellow Alien up that route lately:-(
-
Whoahhh Snoop, thats like real close to a full pitch fall. Sounds more like closer to 100' of air, I'm getting testicular shrinkage just thinking of it. BTW: given all the (tested!) yellow Alien failures that have been occuring...... Whew....glad you're still with us. Heres a dude that had a new, tensile tested (alledgelly) yellow alien fail. Soulders crack alien failure groundfall

Thats what I was thinking, I'd seen pics of that bar. Course, naked Swedish girls would be more entertaining, but Raindawg is an old man. Thanks for the report dawg!
