girlclimber

Yeah, but if those 'milder female types' are so easily offended, I don't think they belong on this site anyway

Harp, I'm saving the Mowich Face for you

holy , I'm the same as Greg_W?? ISTJ. Who woulda thought?

Anyone up for Gib Ledges or Ingraham Direct before spring takes over?? Looks like there's a good window coming up . PM me if interested

I thought it was funny as well! Good point that most of the terms are universal, icegirl. We're onto you now, boys

You forgot me! I know we didn't climb much together this weekend, but I spent ten hours in the car with you guys! A fun time for sure...my second time climbing and my first rap, first belay and first multipitch went down this weekend. Plus I got totally thrashed on Karate Crack - my hands look like a dog was chewing on them!

Muffy, what's wrong with being a girlclimber?? As for the idea of a "women's only" forum, I agree that it would be divisive. If you really want the opinions of other females, there are other places to get them.

Alright guys!! I'm confirmed for this weekend, and I am soooo excited!

To reply to the original post instead of contributing to the massive thread drift ( ).....I think Distel would make a good mod! I'm all for it - should we set up a poll to see who else is??

So if you wanna keep it short and simple, you could just (1)make sure to have the biners facing the same side, and (2)clip with the gates facing away from the direction you're moving? Is that right?

yeeeeah, Popeye pullin' down!!

Point number two: "encouraging a little more responsibility" is a totally ridiculous statement if you think about it for about 20 seconds. I'm sure that getting hurt, breaking bones, getting lost, DYING, are not adequately discouraging, but add a 1000$ bill to it and that would be enough to tip the balance? Noone consciously sets out with the helo in their backup plan. Sure, no one plans on needing a rescue. But there are plenty of people who have initiated one when it wasn't absolutely necessary. The knowledge that they can be charged might cause people to think a bit harder about what they can do to avoid it. Things like getting hurt (minor injuries) or lost will happen, but if you're prepared, there are ways to help yourself instead of relying on others who don't have all the information on your condition and may bring in way more help than needed.

now who wouldn't want to come home to that every night?

but if this is supposed to be the 'unique' character, why are there as many Woodstocks as Charlie Browns?

Luke i told ya they're all just jealous!! neck beard=sexy

yeah!! i'm gonna drive 3.5 hours to see it, Distel

yay, what a fun first trip! thanks to Distel and Mikey for letting me tag along, i enjoyed every minute. Luke showing how it's done Mike clinging "Fucking Suck My Dick" these guys are awesome, climb with them if you get the chance!

so wtf is it? i'm seeing it also, to point that i can barely get anything done on this site. it's really starting to piss me off.

yeehaw!

you've been doing a good job, too

see http://www.mountainspeedclimbing.org/

have fun, guys! let me know how it goes if ya live to tell about it

ah, and i was just about to congratulate you on your self-deprecating humor

i've never climbed the Mowich Face, but August seems like one of the worst times to go. it would be really melted out by then, with lots of rockfall because of high temps. and crossing the glacier to get to the base of the face would be a PITA.

you kiddin?
