I am Luke Distelhorst I like to climb, and I've met a fair amount of people on this site. word

word I'll be there!

"C'mon guys, not funny, who took my crash pad?" "No let's skip the squamish lie-back" followed by a mass beat down!

There are some big blocks that have come off during bouldering! When I was going out to goldbar a lot and climbing/cleaning we pulled off a few huge things. We cleaned up one problem and tried to get this flake off with a crowbar and it wouldn't move so we called it good. Climbed it the next day and it fell off while standing on it, about 24"x40"x3"

those temps in squamish mean fine sending temps for those slopey problems

Utah Bouldering Guide - Jeff Baldwin I have always liked Hemingway's quote though, something along the lines of, "The only true sports in life are car racing, bull fighting and mountain climbing, the rest are merely games." Not a climbing book but The Sun Also Rises is excellent

Walking while intoxicated: broke a hold and it almost hit timmay, that was lame. There are so many bad problems, goldenboy in squampton, rib direct in the buttermilks, (they call it v6, took me 4 tries and it was before I climbed a v5), and From the East in joe's valley because it is all around lame

Real impressed! get up off your knees and go send that 5.6 beyotch

I'd take a

WHAT!? man I would drive at least a couple hours just for one or two of the crags at skaha!!! The wave in the shit!

grades are definitely soft. Not sending wasn't a move issue, just a pump issue. Moves easy, lactic acid bad. Damn bouldering! Yeah I'll be back at smith the 8-9 I believe. Nice change of rock and scene though!!

pretty cheap at second ascent I believe, but if you are set on not going to a climbing shop........could always try home depot or something along those lines

Mike, GK and I were trying the same line, none of us redpointed it though.

Must have looked suspicious! They didn't even check my ID when we crossed on our way to penticton, only checked GK's.

no we didn't stay there. Yeah the sign is awesome! Hey Gary yngve, I think we saw your UW friends, two guys one girl? one guy named Mike??

Glasgow and I went up to Skaha for the weekend. It was my first time. My conclusion is that it is quite cool, nice change of rock, good selection of routes (long and vertical or short and steep). All the bolts are very close. grades seemed debatable. Definitely very cool. I will be heading back for sure quite soon. Don't Fade away is awesome! GK is cool as well

leaving for skaha right now!!!!

"I mean I know my haircut sucks, but really how bad is it!? really? ouch........" "You like my new watch? yeah it is at least half the size of my head!"

entre prise holds suck though.....they have them up here at western, and while the features are pretty cool the holds are lame. toss them and put in a huge order from pusher! also you have to pay for it!? that sucks! And check out the hours, only 4-10pm weekdays and 1-5 on the weekends. ouch!

the doja

yeah I was disspointed......saw the thread, thought Erik would be all up on this and he could hook me up.....

YYEEAAHHH!!! I've never seen such awesome overhanging granite sport climbs as I have there.

Yeah I wish I was like rumr and weighed in at about 130, then I'd be a climbing badass!!! I'm 5'10" 148, and there is no reason to hit the weight room! you don't need pumping iron muscles, you need climbing muscles. All these huge dudes come into the gym at western and can't climb a thing. All about the certain muscles

DFA chain reaction beta shirts Too bad the beta is like a 5 page paper. Took me 20 minutes to print all of it out. What you should have made up is a shirt from the Tuft love fest. Just get like 20 made up, and have a top ten events of the weekend on the back or something: 1. Layton and Erik kegstands 2. Looking for DFA 3. Getting drunk 4. Getting stoned 5. Climbing 6. Hitting on the women 7. Taking pictures of GaperT while he's sleeping 8. Looking at Paco in his Wifebeater 9. Eating Horsecock 10. Spraying that is my humble attempt at humor, didn't work, but something along those lines. I would buy one for sure!

indeed thank you! quite good, and that bubbler destroyed me....
