Tex is suffering from Yosemite mentality. At least Pan didn't get lost on the approach...

Overpriced but easy to make yourself: I thought this was a V day thread

DFA = Yvon

No developed climbing on the OR coast. In town: (Eugene/Springfield): skinners butte (handful of basalt columns), Crux Rock Gym Within 2 hours: Sisters (bouldering), 3 sisters, Mt Washington, 3 Finger Jack (mtneering), Flagstone (trad and sport), Wolf Rock, Menagerie, Cock Rock (lane county classic! ), super secret mixed crag Within 3 hours: Smith Rock, Trout Creek, Mt Hood, Mt Jefferson, all of Portland, Beacon, the gorge Ice... Michael Layton said it best: If you stay in vermont you will get way more local water ice, but there is some to be had around here. If you move to the PNW you will have access to more rewarding BIG ice climbs, but they will be few and far between. You'll be closer to road trips to the canadian rockies and montana, although flying there from vermont is way quicker than driving there from portland. Vermont=more ice climbing for you PNW=real alpinism, but with much hair pulling and failure Awesome town! PM me if you have specific questions... I grew up here

Chaps, do you have a mother?

But do you have a spraymaster toque?

All the horses in St Paul already have V day dates Chaps?

How about brown? Does it have a chestbeater neutrino pocket?

I get the feeling someone likely already posted this... nothing seems to get past you guys: The spraymaster I wanna know how much of a profit cut Dru is getting. Did they make a custom hello kitty print color? Do they make a pair of silkweight spraymaster boxers? Do they make it in olyclimber yoda greeen?
