I knew telling her to post would be a bad idea. My physique could be compared to E.T. Turns out I am prefectly suited for kayaking.

Huh, this is a funny one, the access issues have always been very sensitive, that's why NR has never been made public. What exactly has changed to make this a public area?

Link to the photobucket site I made for the trip. http://s172.photobucket.com/albums/w2/grandcanyonriggers/ Braden bouldering in Nevell canyon as John Franklin waits for his turn.

yeah.

Nice one!

Everyone all done feeling important? ...Good, now stop acting like this shit is important. Harp over pseudo politics, whine about personal ethics, cry about bolts! Even land managers could fucking care less about shit this stupid. I declare this thread dead. Amen.

Went down the GC with a bunch of folks last month, lots of fun! I learned to oar an 18 foot raft and did a little whitewater kayaking as well. We were 16 guys from Las Vegas, Yosemite, San Diego and Tahoe on a private permit. Rule 1. Bring more beer than you can possibly imagine. (we drank somewhere around 40 cases worth and ran out) Rule 2. Bring more of everything else too. Some highlights include a canyoneering descent of Deer creek canyon,( I drank beer and watched) slackline across the Colorado (not me, thanks) and did a fair bit of bouldering ( oh yeah!). We also managed a nice hand crack in the Havasu Creek area along with some easy soloing. I cannot express how freakin' amazing the canyon is... you float past 5-600 unclimbed big walls, hike amazing slot canyons and paddle 225 miles of amazingly powerful water. I cannot reccomend this trip enough!!!

Well done, a fitting tribute indeed.

Try this: Be a man and stand up for your actions, you fucking pussy.

Lara was a wonderful person, so sad.

See ya later!

Nice to meet you guys, glad the trip was a blast!

This is the funniest thread since the last funny thread.

Sorry ladies, all the straight ones are taken.

Well, Jason is no 21 year old collage kid, he a great guy and a hell of a climber. Bill, you see him, make him go climbing sometime!

By request, Jason cranking the crux of the Beckey/Cinnabon.

I thought this was a women's climbing calendar, so I posted a nice shot of the lady taking the runout. Mrs G. is not a poster here, so she did not feel like she should submit a shot. This one seemed to be popular: hey, I've seen her pic, and this one does not do her justice. We're talking about a cover girl beauty here and all you give us is this shot?

Nice! Mrs G. sez she's in for next year.

Am I ever going to get that backstage pass? 5.10?... better take off the shirt The Granite Family

Hey loud talking people, This is a hot chicks thread. Please keep it free of your wierd creepy comments. Thank you and best wishes, -LG

Here's a nice picture of me and Mrs. G, she's the one on the right.

The weather is nice right now, come on down!

... what it looks like under the water's surface. Did around 50 rolls in the new kayak, right is fine, but left still is a mystery.

We had an extremely close flyby during a spring picnic on top of Tyestick point at Stevens pass. The pilot clearly saw us as he flew by 200 feet away. He dipped his wings as a salute.
