Excellent point. I've been wondering how to get these things to stay on those bolt thingies. There's got to be a better way Say, what are those bolt thingies for anyway? I never have anything I want to leave up there, so what's the point?

SLCDs are gonna set you back no matter what kind you go. I have a full rack of BD, augmented by metolius TCUs, some Tricams, and of course, all sorts of passive gear. Go with what feels good to you. I like all my gear, and it is all useful, so I have no preference either way for Spring loaders Just make sure the pro you're using feels good to you while your feet are skating out of the crack, your power's fading, and your last piece is 15 ft away. Fun fun fun!

I attempted to hike Tidbits mountain this weekend in the McKenzie river/Blue River area, and the snow level was around 4500 feet, and there was lots of it. Bulo is further east in the rain shadow, so it might be dry. I was going to try to go there next week. If I go I'll submit a report.

I enjoy almost all aspects of the sport, except aid. It's just really easy sometimes to load the dog in the truck and go for a solo bouldering session when I can't find reliable/stable/trustworthy/sane partners. Hence, the query. Yeah, there's tons o' great rock to climb around Eugene, but I still would like to boulder once in a while w/o having to drive 2&1/2 hrs to Sisters or an hour to Roseburg. Then afterwards: and

Hey there Corvallis type guy. How about the bouldering in your area? That's not too far from Eugene!

Anybody out there know anything about this? Any help would be better than no help Shit any Beta at all about Bouldering near Eugene, if it exists, is helpful.

Fuck me! I'd have to be in the woods a looong time to cut my arm off! Twisted.

Hey! Eugene Climber with no place to put up a poor little woodie of his own looking for some friendlies to share their plastic with me! I'll supply the if you supply the wall! post it here! weeknights are what I'm looking at, and I'd rather not join the Crux again. Hook me up!!
