Cool thanks for the 411.
4th 10a boulder move. Super fun.

Pitch 1 5.8.
After the last bolt on the travers on the second pitch what do you guys do for gear into the butthole? or do just clip the bolt and then place a cam in the crack on top of the butthole?
-
Your wife must be something else to put up with the likes of you Great story, the two guys at beacon I saw should have had cell phone for the same reason.
It was nice to meet you at Beacon.
will

FYI there is a reason they call it camp hazard.
-
I started it, but that is cause I did the same thing with my friends who started climbing not too long ago. Gave out my extra axes and crampons. Sorry to say that I am fresh out. Give me a couple of years I will have some more
Have several old ropes but I would never give those out to anybody, that would be bad form.
-
WTF....Can I get some tax advice from them. I plan on importing young childeren to sell to hollywood celebs so they can skip that whole adoption thing
-
I can agree with mark but if you really want to make a difference some one with extra gear would get that boy a proper set of crampons or boots. The other stuff like eat and drinking while you are hiking he seems to have figured out.
-
chuck it... or don't fall on it.
That is a good one, I am going to use it in the future.
-
Check these guys out.
Granted you have to order them but and that takes some time but the pants I got from them are the BOMB. They are my fall, winter, early spring pants. I got an older version of the Cold Play pant. Full side zips and what not. Last year I only wished for tights under them one day and that day was windy cold. Oh and they are the ONLY company I can get pants that fit. What only short people do outdoor activities?
-
Yes you do but your back will be much happier. I end up just being bent over for the entire pitch. I use to use my autolock on everything, but lately I have been using it only on harder routes where the climber will be moving much slower.
-
Go get a auto block and forget about it if you are bring up second. If belaying leader use it in ATC mode. If I was leading or following I would rather you use an ATC. It is good to know those friction knots but I have been lucky enough not to need them (fingers crossed and knocking on wood).
-
damn wish I saw this earlier. damn, damn, damnnnnnn, daaaaaammmmmnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You find anybody?

Last time I purchased a parking pass for smith was at GI Joes. Now that they are gone where can I go in bend or redmond to get an annual or 2 year parking pass for smith? yes I now you can get them at the park but I don't want to have to wait for the old people to get there as I tend to start early.
Want to start saturday at 8 am and climb till late.
Freddie's?
-
It would work but you would be bending over a lot. Just belay off your harness and redirect through directional.
-
You could not get back your draws? The second had to go up the rope but could not take the draws? No fifi or no ascenders?
Wondering cause I am planning on doing that route this weekend and I am the "more experienced" one:)
Doubt that they will be there, but if they are I will get them back to you.
-
Mnthippy. Sounds like we have the same foot. I have the megarides and they are narrow. After a couple of years I also decided that I need a wider forefoot.
This is second hand but I understand that the BD boots might work for you. I have not tried them on as I have a tough time justifying the cost of another pair of AT boots. Thank goodness that the Megarides are nearing the end of thier life span
I will be interested in what you end up with.
-
Dang it I had my camera and everything to take some pictures. Next time I will post some
-
First of all climb more. When I was strong at the overhangs I was at PRG at least 3 days a week and I bike an hour to get there. I had bad form but I was strong.
Being fluid helps and I found that spending some time in the bouldering room helped alot on my movement i.e. keeping the mid section up not down.
If you have been going to PRG for a while I would hit up the hang board as well. Don't do alot, maybe once a week.
-
Thanks for the info. I will go and pick up the book.
-
The Mazama guide a new book out? All I have for the area is this link
Looking to head up to that area next weekend.
-
nice work guys!!!
-
I agree with the ranger. Don't look for him next time. If he had done all that hiking this summer that did not need rescue he should know better. I call BS on his "hiking."
-
like it...lol.
