ZIIING!

Where's the old guy

Maybe not what you were expecting:

It's about time someone said it: STFU, N00B!

Yo! That's chilli' wack , Dawg.

Oh! The angst of lost witty comeback!

That's a great trip report Wayne - really shows your (and Josh's) determination, and enjoyment in the face of adversity!

However, carrying a glissade board on a 5.9 chimney so you can enjoy the ride down, is a guaranteed buzzkill.

On a related note, when I was a youngster hanging with my folks in Camp 4, my Mom said Chuck Pratt's idea of a good time was to set all the dogs free at the tourist's camp at 2 AM, and sit back and watch the show.

wha happened?

Man, It's still summer. You folks are on the wrong kind of snow.

in /home/.gumnut/climb/ If I was old, and could gum my nuts, I'd never leave my room in Pleasant Hill Retirement Home.

prolly down for routine stuff, I still got all my valuable PM's I refused to copy

I'd guess that you're avatar was well-chosen, cuz you're takin' some Kix!

Found this response when I linked the story to another climbing website: I have a big problem with these climbers. The climb took place in a sacred and very remote valley in North Cascades National Park that demands respect. The problem is these climbers have no respect for the north cascades. This is evident by the bag of garbage they left at the top of the wall. They even had the audacity to send a picture of their bag of garbage to the local Bellingham Herald Newspaper!!! Their non-biodegradable plastic bag with a joker card inside was left on the top of the wall! Littering in a national park is not only illegal but totally immoral!! Once again the climbing community in Bellingham has shown its true colors. These climbers are apparently like many climbers in our area who care about nothing more than their egos. They had to make 8 rapels to get off the wall, which means they left 8 more pieces of garbage(webbing) behind them. They also reported finding garbage left by Fred Beckey and another party who previously tried the route. Did they pick up this garbage?? Heck no! Why......because they were to busy thinking about the articles they could write once they retreated back to Bellingham! Until these guys get some humility I hope they have a long time to think about their actions while dangling limply from the end of their climbing rope after taking a really long hard fall! When Eric are you going to return to this site to clean up your garbage???? What a tool, I guess he would downclimb the whole thing. Nice armchair analysis.

Your bait is unappealing. I ain't biting.

Agreed. A break of a week or so for the liver would be appreciated.

The walls are entreprise imprint panels, not very many t-nuts per panel due to the irregular surfaces. The wall, though tall, has limited routes because of the narrowness, and there is no bouldering, just some weak-ass traverse. Plus you have to deal with the Y mentality, and poseurs hangdogging all over the difficult routes.

Hee hee hee! OOO! Stop that! My, what big teeth you--

The YMCA sucks in my opinion, but the gym at the U is good. I don't know if the Thunder Monkey Dome is still up and running since Luke is YakBouldering now, but that was a good pump. Erik

Lammy's going all PC and mainstream on us! Seriously, Congratulations.

How did you fare on that, Mr. ManBoobs?

That's exactly the problem. A big fucking problem because growth is not infinite. There are boundaries and we are hurtling toward them. Bring it. Otherwise, if prolonged, we are doomed.

That is one of the most succinct statements I have read here in a while. Thanks, Eric.
