  1. AATWT HOZ complete Pickets traverse many, many days in the Valley
  2. No can do tonight...have fun wankers! drink an extra pitcher for me
  3. Right on Mike! You'll totally love living down there in the SLC! The chicks are hot, the snow is deep, the climbing is awesome! Just remember that you have to drink twice as much beer. cheers!
  4. They're a 42.5 I wear anywhere from a 40-42.5 in rock shoes. I wear anywhere from a 9-10.5 in street shoes. I have 42.5 sized tele boots.
  5. They're approximately a size 9 1/2
  6. Charlet Aztar's, hammer and adze...nearly new...$150 each. Scarpa Freney XT climbing boot...worn only a couple of times...awesome climbing boot! $250
  7. I assume all parties involved in the epic climb survived? I think I was actually dead for a day, but somehow was revived a day and a half later.
  8. Um....pretty much pick any mountain on any side of the valley. Skin up, ski down...repeat.
  9. I climbed Go-Cat-Go a few months ago with a buddy who had not been climbing since February due to an injury. He led it just fine, on gear. I followed it and found it to be an enjoyable climb. Yes, there is a bit of a run out section. This is true of many crack climbs. Seeing these climbs bolted down to a lower level is very disappointing. Put a PG or an R rating next to the route name (not that the climb in question deserves either) and call it good. Leave it up to the next perspective leader to make the call as to whether or not he/she will lead the climb.
  10. Yeah, need a ride for this one....anyone want to carpool? I'll bring the tequila!
  11. Live in Lyons, work in Boulder....
  12. woa! 2am return from Hyperspace??? I want to hear this story!
  13. Why the %@*! would anyone want to climb Cascadian any time of year unless the purpose was to ski it? That thing is the biggest POS anywhere. Have fun dude
  14. The one I'm thinking of has 3 or 4 bolts through a bulge down low, and then a thin face crack on the front of the column that takes tiny brassies, and a #1 in a flaring pod and then another bolt near the top after the crack disappears. apparently 11b, but felt stiffer than that.
  15. Don't worry Wayne...Sky and I are will bring a raucous Seattle contingent...complete with tequila and t-shirts saying that we knew Wayne before Mongo! Looking forward to the show!
  16. Yeah that top section on Red M&M's is tough. I think the crux mid route is a bit more technical, but that bit at the top is more physical. Either way, I still think that Yodemeister and CTD are tougher. Yodemeister has very few rests at all, where Red M&M's has great rests. CTD is just funky thin, kinda like Red M&M's but with only one crack. Maybe Red M&M's feels a bit easier because it is not very sustained. But with two distinct cruxes, wile Yodemeister is sustained from bottom to top.
  17. I've owned two Beal's so far. One 10.2 and one Joker. I've found that they are solid ropes. The 10.2 was the flyer, a very durable crag rope. Have absolutely no complaints about that rope. The Joker is a great rope for alpine rock where weight is a primary concern. Again, I have nothing bad to say.
  18. Anyone else think that Yodemeister and Crossing the Delaware are both significantly more difficult than Red M&M's? I think so, but I pretty much suck anyways so my opinion probably doesn't count
  19. Right on man. Keep on having fun out there. Godzilla, Princely Ambitions, Toxic Shock are all awesome 5.9. It's not how hard you climb, it's how much fun you're having
