If you need to make full length raps, use either two half ropes or a single rope and an ultra skinny tag line (I think some people go as thin as 6mm, but 7mm is probably a lot more manageable and 8mm is even better) This should be a static line that is maybe 20-30 ft longer than your dynamic line so that they have the same stretched length. A surprising number of multipitch routes have single rope descents and walk offs, so you might not always need the tag line.

Do you have the book?

Sadly, most of the best routes are also the most popular. The ones that get a lot of traffic have way less loose rock and are often justifiably popular. Are you looking for cracks or sport climbs? Most people start at Sunshine wall because it has lots of good routes and gets sun. Any of the 3 and 4 star routes in the book are pretty good IMO. A few Suggestions 5.6 - Stokin the Chicken (hard 5.6 IMO) 5.7 - Seven Virgins and a Mule 5.8 - Crossing the threshold, Vantage Point 5.9 - Don Coyote, Tangled Up in Blue There are a bunch more too. PS, wear a helmet!

But coupon is only for full priced items I think.

Givler's rocks! If it was too easy for you, why not just climb one of the harder routes to the left. Or that 5.13 Skinner crack up there.

Where is that at?

Oaxaca on Ballard Ave is hands down my favorite mexican restaurant I like Aqua Verde a lot for lunch Guyamas on green lake is very good. Other Guyamas on Leary is good too for fast mexican I also think the burritos at Beso Del Sol in Wallingford rock There are a lot of other generic mexican family style restauants around that hit the spot, but aren't necessarily anything special.

Thanks

This pack still isn't on the BD site. How much is it? How big is it?

During your involvement in the Oct 2003 "Mounties Pics" thread, were you laughing at all mounties or only those who didn't attend this slide show? http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/260155/page/0/fpart/1/vc/1

I have been training for the 2nd ascent, do you think I'm ready?

I'm already there (And I only need one arm)

regarding board length: Some maufacturers quote material length and others quote tip to tail length. The amount of kick will dictate how close these numbers are.

This thread is only 3 days old. I doesn't get much more current than that. The approach depends on the climb, but basically you park on the road and walk up hill to the climbs. Some climbs can be seen from the road, others are hidden.

Glad you guys are OK. Hope things improve for your partner's toes.

Very nice climbing!! Good idea bringing a third party photographer for verification agains future winter speed ascents.

The 10C right of the twelve is really fun and unique. Thin moves on an interesting ramp. Not sure if it is really 10C, but fun nonetheless. The 10a to 10d is a chosspile. Super dirty. The 10a section seems really easy and the 10d section seems pretty hard.

Nice site, especially the Iron Maiden soundtrack.

That is the one I was thinking of. 10d is about right for that route at E38.

The route just right of endless bliss is 10+ in the book. I think the 12 is either a blatent misprint, or another route and the 10+ is missing.

Amazing line. Nice work.
