Sphinx

Your maturity is astounding. Thanks for providing such an excellent role model. You know, many people climb sport just so they won't have to run into you at the crags.

Wow, Dwayner, your wit and humor keep outdoing themselves. I can understand why you'd be bitter, not getting laid in twenty years can do that. And how DARE those boulderers have fun! They should all be shot! You're getting old, fag. Find a new punchline.

No, it's just ice cream!

Your ignorance is a disgrace and your stupidity is astounding.

If you pull the out of your your ing will be . Now stop and go . Oh, and go see your shrink.

And that would make you a brainless, snaffle-humping, pagetop seeking, arrogant, spew-master, busy spraying and sticking horsecock up your ass. Good thing you don't climb.

I am pleased to announce that Beck and Citizen Dragon are full of (penguin) shit. NO MORE CRUELTY TO PENGUINS! Crackbolter, on the other hand, is God. Dru, your Quarks are so suck. I rest my case.

Shouldn't you be trying to commit suicide...I mean ski? How can you stand being left out on the Price trip? Huh? And while you're at it, Sky and Ben have both done the Park Headwall. What are you waiting for?

Hey Trask, what's your new avatar?

Noooooooo...it's from google. Duh!

You should be more cynical. It's old news that politicians are full of shit, no matter what party they're on. They do what will get them elected, not what it right, or what they believe in. Human nature. Deal with it. Too bad that Gore didn't figure out a better way to cheat than Bush...you losers would be happy.

"independent investigators determined that the list was 95% inaccurate" Yeah, and independent labs verify Marmot's "900 fill" down. You liberal whiners never admit you're wrong, do you? Let's watch Bush win again in a few months.

1. Rammed earth and hay bales, and stucco, duh. 2. Bark chips, until the paper industry crashes, it'll always be around, and usually isn't used for much. I've tried papyrus, but it's too brittle, and the cost to the environment is too great.

yur a dumass. fuckin best time of year is in the summer. climb at night by headlamp swim in the river and scam babes during the day. yea, if you climb 5.4 and you're a total poser don't tell me it is better to climb in 110F then in 65F clownpuncher as far as "scaming babes" it's obvious to me you have never climbed in France, Italy, Czech Republic or Poland. A lot of topless chicks with proper body fat ratio (in comaprison to overweight cali-fucken-fornia-women with bad attitude)- so who is the dumbass? I am SO there!

Seems like most people around here are against placing new bolts. On the other hand, if you want to chop some trees down to reduce shade at popular crags, go right ahead, everybody will support it!

Smith is already overrun with trails and climbers. The place has been so trashed, it's damage control that the SpringThing focuses on. Leave the trees at Index alone.

SprayShaw, you have too much time on your hands. Go hump a goat.

Please, I really enjoy the trees, as well as the "dank mossy factor" at the base of the routes. Please leave it alone. And AlpineK, you seem to belong in the "hate" group you mentioned. I'm a realist, and not a tree hugger. Please acknowledge that. I just don't see the rational. Don't make more human impact visible at the crags. Just because they have already been altered by humans, doesn't mean we have to change them more. Clean climbing involves more than no bolts. "Hey, here's a landfill. Well, it's already ruined, let's dump some toxic waste." Are you really that dumb? I hope not.

You preach low impact, but advocate impact. Don't be stupid, the trees don't affect the routes significantly; why change it? Climbing is about the natural environment, if I want to climb in a gym, I'll go to Stone Gardens. Sure, climbers have some impact, but why make it worse. For the dumbfucks who argue about bolting, why the fuck aren't you defending the environment? Chopping down trees has FAR greater impacts than a few bolts. Not everything should be changed for our convenience, assholes. Leave some things alone.

Which ones?

ALL LIVING THINGS ARE SACRED UNLESS I CAN EAT THEM! And why would you want to cut them down? Just because it's your profession...

I meant in pants. No schoeller fabric is totally windproof. Take your "windproof" schoeller, and try to blow air through it. I guarantee that you will be able to. The only truely windproof softshell fabric I've seen is the Patagonia Dimension, and they don't make pants out of that fabric.

Question: why can't anybody come up with a scholler-type fabric that is truely windPROOF, but cool enough to wear hiking in to a climb in summer? Most of these soft shell things blow due to their lack of windproofness. For example, the Serendipity is not much more windproof than fleece! Give me a break!
