  1. misty mountain cadillac http://climbmaxmountaineering.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=275
  2. nice video and better route. Good work.
  3. if it wed or thurs, and started in the afternoon. Other than that I am in
  4. Unless you are lazy and are mostly a trad climber. why would a trad (free) climber have daisy chains on? Unless you are lazy and mostly a aiding while free climber. Or you think for yourself and do what works for you. Yes it works for me So you would take up a sling and a locker. I will take up a daisy and a locker. Weight basically same. But I can adjust the length to a better change over stance. As a trad climber yes I can tie into the anchor with the rope but I am lazy and don't want to deal with adjusting the knot every time I move around while bringing up second or belaying the leader (multi with bolted anchors). But what ever works for you. Daisy for me = easy to use, less time, less to screw up, and virtually no weight penalty. Then again I have been known to climb with a helmet on
  5. how about clip in with a daisy chain or better yet two and rap off so you don't wear out the ends of the chains. Unless you feel like you want to donate some time and $$ to replace those chains. Also having the daisy chains already on your harness before you leave the ground is that there is one less thing to screw up, and one less thing to do while you are up there so less turn around time.
  6. That blows. But why did you have all that in your car?
  7. Right cause ALL those people up there are Mazamas. Not one person up there is on thier own. They ALL are on a Mazama climb. Go sit on a dick.
  8. Get a smaller belay device!! That will help a lot!! I have rapped 8 mill with a reversino and had no issues, good friction. I have rapped several times using 5 mil static line with the reversino full weight and it was ok, really had to hold onto rope and use glove. But no special figuring was needed.
  9. darn dog. WTF....I got a good idea lets go find a dead dear and roll around in it, sounds like a good time...lol. The booters wish they were as smart as you so they could ski down.
  10. I guess tall skinny people don't exist either, yet alone climb. Though I am doing my best to put on weight
  11. Stop Johndavidjring this thread.. ass wipe
  12. integral designs MK3 is da bomb.
  13. cause this is called Cascade Climbers, not Cascade Mt. Bikers.
  14. Don't get me wrong it is not percieved weakness scare me. Right now it is lack of strenth and ballzzz. Just need to get out more. I was making good headway last year and intend to get a lot better this year. Got a couple I tried last year and this year will get them clean. I am not afraid to hang dog it
  15. that is too bad. I wanted to go and check that place out. Guess that will have to wait now.
  16. which 5 perchance? i bet there are more you can do, especially if you're willing to relax your sense of style a bit Well if have not sold out to aidin:crazy: yet if that is what you were getting to But never say never
  17. Thanks for keeping us posted. I can't wait to get out there. Love that place even if I can only climb 5 routes there.

    Bent Gates

    Bent wires are to be used the same way bent solid gates are used. For setting up an anchor you can use them. For bolted anchors lockers on bolts is better, well that is what I like. But tons-o-people use sport draws for anchors, just make sure that the biners are opposite.
  19. North side routes Info summit post info
