Get the book is all I can say. Holy shit, I stayed up until 2pm reading it. Psyched to buy a rope all of a sudden!!! Also, that 5.5 route attacks the weakness of the wall and he references tons of potential for hard slab climbs. Who's got a hand drill they wanna sell cheap?

The book says the north face standard route rolls right up the center starting at that wedge, called The Apron. 6 pitches. Top two supposedly amazing run out slab climbing. 5.5

Vandeforde's has 3 copies left as of 4pm today. It's amazing, really well written and tons of info, sure to piss off lots of old schoolers. Best part is, it has none of my area's and none of my (ok, but only a few) projects that I was worried would get exposed. Bonus, half the approache descriptions to routes I'd never thought of climbing go like this..."scramble thru the huge bolderfield, you can camp among the massive bolders".

I'll ride my bike down there tomorrow and check it out if I remember. Should be cool.

They keep pushing the publication date back on that gig, starting to wonder if it's ever gonna go off. Guess I should call Bessler and ask him directly. Nice stone indeed.

McCallBoater, got any stories/pix/beta on the Lionhead?

I've been drinking for two weeks straight when work doesn't interfere. Family in town and all. Fat like that.

OMG, that sucks so bad. I had hoped that the old growth P Pines would survive this. Such a shame. On a side note, past controlled burning experience up there would lead me to believe that the poison ivy will be back in force come spring time, it does well being burnt apparently. Got any pix of the circuit in current state? And any chance they didn't tie in any cliffbands with retardant? Thanks for the update.

zonk, you still got a cabin up the Tunk? Hope so. Also hoping that no too many good cliffs got tied in with retardant, that shit's a mess.

8 pages on the Black Forest? I must have been mistaken when I claimed it not to be the best boldering in Washington. I sit corrected.

STFU & putt the ballgag back in, you lederhosen clad dwarf. It's not like you're sticking around the pacific north wet any longer. Agreed that kix's posturing and shameless self promotion is sickening.

It was good but did you expect any different from me? Hopefully all that chrystal (meth) gazing you'll be doing in sedona will align your ankle chakra and you'll be a unified complete entity again. With the capabilities of putting my liners in the post before the snow falls again even!!

Toe Jam has exposure?

gheyest internet "i'm leaving" speech evar!

no. but good one. there's hope for you yet.

why has no one mentioned that everything west of the cascades is choss?

considering the thread title and OP, I thought for sure this thread was all about teh gay pr0n

ultra strength felching straws

4 broken shovels, a car jack, 8 people and a scary twenty seconds or so when appeared it was going to reach the road, with abundant federal vehicles parked alongside. Wait, trundle epics or ethics?

I know what happens in truck stop restrooms is supposed to stay in truck stop restrooms but answer my damn pm's man!! Don't get pissy about a couple sores.

Most Flag limestone not at teh Draw (or Cherry or BVB's new choss) has seen some modification.

They'd obviously never been to Tonsai. Flashing 7b+ since 1995!!! Only they were really 11b's.

This thread is just begging for one of these...

I can't begin to convey how utterly fucking ghey that is. Best boldering in the US (hueco downgraded for bullshit that has to be endured to actually bolder there) vs chossy chipped spurt climbs. F You, I know the forks is badass trad climbing, the first two invalidate.

Best ever, IMHO.
