[Sexy woman of the week award]

I purposely forget teh safewords.

 

At least on the receiving end...

[Pink buildering.]

gneiss...did you send any real problems there?

 

Drop Zone?

Anorexic Nerve Dance?

The Matson Problem?

Heart Cave?

[Sexy woman of the week award]

One would hope.

[Sexy woman of the week award]

I love you all so much that I would be willing to force each and every one of you to do exactly as you wish.

 

Only if I get to feel your new muscles.

 

<3 kegels!!!

[dehydrated states of america]

North Idaho will sell any of you dried up bitches our water. We've got lots, soon to be polluted by gold mines under the Cabinet Wildnerness.

 

Line starts over here -------->

[Sexy woman of the week award]

I'd hit it.

[NHL draft]

I remember when hockey didn't suck.

 

 

Wait, I'm lying.

 

 

It's always sucked.

 

 

Wait, am I thinking of soccer?

[sex and rockclimbing?]

If sex is a pain in the ass, you're doing something right.

 

Or so your mom said.

 

 

 

Wrong thread?

[state the obvious thread]

I have to poop.

[Minne Access]

Isn't that route called Dempsey's Brass Rail?

[Banks Lake rock]

I don't have your book Marty. Did you copyright it?

 

Does Eastern Washington have dirty crackheads?

 

 

Paging Donnie Baker...

[Banks Lake rock]

So will LaBelle for renaming all the routes. That really chaps my ass the most Steve. -Bland out.

 

 

These would be teh infamous Red routes?

[Omak Rocks Access Update]

I heard Donny Baker has a little Native in him. Maybe he'll join in this important topic soon.

 

My cousin in Inchelium told me Donny has had more than a little Native in him, if you know what I mean...

 

Goddamitanyway!

[Omak Rocks Access Update]

I'm not following you here, Blowboarder. Was there a guidebook to climbs on the Reservation - or was the idea that one was about to be published a contributory factor in the Tribe's decision or that of any of the individual landowners involved? I know the climbers over there were largely secretive for twenty years or more and some feared what might come with publicity.

 

I'll let Sargent_Rock answer this if he will, I was 15 when some of this shit went down and probably don't have all the story straight. I was heckling one person in particular who made climbing at Omak a much more public endeavor. And yes, there was a guide published.

[Omak Rocks Access Update]

Hahaha. Your guidebook is actually good. And doesn't give details on areas with a history of access problems.

 

Could have used some boldering tho.

[Climbing on Pend Oreille lake]

Marty, I would have plugged your book here but since your website only has seven really cool photo's on it, and no link to your guide.....

 

Here's Thad's gig....

supposedly he unleashes some previously insider only info, might explain his relocation to Bend?

[Climbing on Pend Oreille lake]

I don't have a copy anymore either but Thad's new guidebook to North Idaho is supposedly hitting the shelves end of June, looked for a link but couldn't find one, I'll look in the magazine article (non-climbing rag) I read and post up any info on it.

 

 

F'n guidebooks, routes are going to go from completely empty to seeing a few climbers a month....how will I cope?

[Supercrack of Leavenworth.]

pix?

[Climbing on Pend Oreille lake]

Haha, maybe I'm not done!

 

And the 500'ers would be the medium size walls in that area.

 

Of course, Kix can tell you the hazards of following my advise on new rock.

[Omak Rocks Access Update]

I believe history is not necessarily going to be on your side.

 

Particularly in this instance.

 

I personally feel it's the need the for acclaim and recognition that caused more harm than bolts in this case.

 

Publicity sucks. It's why I post pix with no beta.

[sex and rockclimbing?]

this thread reeks of a greek bath house

[Omak Rocks Access Update]

Got any background info on BLM policy/attitude towards climbing and more specifically bolting?

[Omak Rocks Access Update]

"but if I don't write a guidebook, no one will know how rad I am"

[sex and rockclimbing?]

i feel dumber for having read this

 

 

too dumb 2 3ven sp311 rite

[Climbing on Pend Oreille lake]

That'd be granite point, out across the lake from Talache. You need a good boat (4-5 foot waves not uncommon out there, next point from granite is aptly named windy point) since the feds decided to rake up the high drive for "caribou habitat protection". Mostly single pitch stuff, lots of loose rock, doesn't see much traffic from what I can tell, would be really good if it cleaned up, there's a super classic crack I can't remember the name of worth doing.

 

Around the corner in the Green Monarchs there is 8-10 pitch potential on quartzite ridges, I think the right side (slabby) would be uber easy, like 5.2 hiking and the left side (super steep) would need to be bolt protected and probably in the 5.13 range. I'm sure you could find something in between, possibly right on the arete.

 

The fact that I'm sharing this info signals the end of my era as an intrepid first ascentionist.
