    There's a harder route to the left (mentioned above) that is at least a 12. He has routes to the right of "Cream" but I don't know the names or ratings. One might have been "Anchors Away" and I think it was 11 something.

    They all look good.

    Yep, them's the ones - I was looking at the .10c and the .12 last time I was up there. The .10c does look good, but James is such a notorious sandbagger, I wanted to make sure it was in fact a .10+ before I tried it. The sickle crack that is .12 looks HARD!! Thanks for the confirmation NBNW.

    FB and Patagucci?

    Great theory CBS, probably explains why ants have it so much easier despite being quite short.

    Actually, I don't think that fractal geometry explains the ability of ants to walk on walls and their relative strength. The wall walking has to do with their weight relative to surface area. Strength has more to do with having an exoskeleton and being small.

     

    So are lizards just really strong compared to their weight? and what about those crazy moves I've seen snaffles do near the bases of climbs? Maybe they have secret practice sessions to impress us "real" climbers.

    have you seen GOATS move on stone..

    Shitdamn I want their rubber on my feet. snaf.gif

     

    A friend of mine, Zoltan, once saw a small ledge break under a goat on Snow Creek Wall. The goat started to plummet (it was about 50 feet up from the base), and it turned down and RAN DOWN THE WALL!! He said it sounded like machine-gun fire, the hooves were hitting the wall so fast!!

    Anyway, the goat ran it out onto the base, where the front legs hit with an audible THUMP!, and then just looked around like it was no biggie...

     

    Zoltan bowed and said: "Master!"
