Climb: El Capitan-Salathe
Date of Climb: 6/5/2005
Trip Report:
I helped my friend Steve Schneider do a free ascent of the Salathe. We spent two nights on the wall, we had planned to spend three nights but we got caught up with cragging and such. Steve onsighted every pitch untill the two 13 pitches on the headwall wich he speed/aid climbed through due to fading light and need to get off the wall. All in all a great time was had by the both of us. Perfect weather in the valley for my time spent there, and I didnt get tooled by any rangers.
here are some pictures:
Gear Notes:
clean wall rack
Approach Notes:
short as hell

The Good Doctor has spoken. Long live DFA.
Whats makes this guy so great? What sort of credentials does some anonymous "Dr." of sport climbing have that makes him always so right? Your an asshole with your ego DFA "And maybe Dr. Flash Amazing is mistaken (not likely, of course)", go clip your bolts and cry about my good friends being assholes. I'm sick of reading all of your posts in 3rd person where you talk as if your always right, and the know it all of the climbing community(I guess mainly just cascadesprayers.com). I personaly feel its fuckin lame and bullshit. Just write some normal shit instead of trying to hide yourself to hype up your identity.

i was pretty sure that is why we were SUPOSED to wear helmets when we climb... I have had glof ball sized rocks come off at the collums on well climbed routes. if you are standing under a climb... you are at ground zero. if you are concerned wear your brain bucket.As for the kitty litter sized rocks... yes, dozens of them were that size,but there were several golf ball size rocks as well, one of which
missed my wifes head by about 18 inches as she belayed her sister.
I think that's significant enough to mention to other climbers, regardless
of whether I know you or not, or whether I post rarely or frequently
on this message board.
Thanks,
Mike
climbing is dangerous no matter what your doing, clipping bolts at smith or strung out on A5 on baffin island. its not so much up to other people to make it safer, but up to yourself.
-
yes it was wayne... and i never got to see it
-
ive used one a couple times. its nice how they pack up, but they are rather small. id say prolly worth the cheap price.
-
douche.... well i had to make a stick clip out of a stick and some tape and shoe laces but i freaked out before i could even clip that first bolt, i gotta go back and try again mabey ill bring my 100ft stick clip so i can stick up a tr with out needing a bad ass pimpen rope gun like you mike
but seriously isnt that what those people get for standing undernead another climb!?!?! -
Tyler, let em keep clipping bolts on 9 gallon buckets.
oh, and you're a fuck face too
p.s. not knocking 9 gallon buckets, i love that climb.
damn fuck face eh i got scared stick clipping the first bolt on that bucket one
-
yeah people spray one another for no reason at all... jokes are fun, but it gets to a point on these message boards when somepeople really need to shut up. i have not noticed a lack of hood trs... but anything else yes. in the past few months hasnt anyone else climbed something in oregon (besides mt hood) like barad dur? the turkey monster? steins pillar? eastern oregon granite? anything anything at alll? it seems like adventure is dying in oregon
laytons recent tr of ryme dog was refreshing, but come on people get on some more choss!!!! -
woah... i did think that was for your woman
, but now it seems mabey i was wrong -
is that you?
Yeah, there's always gotta be one David Fucking Hasslehoff wanna-be in the crowd.
-
any one been there? got any beta to share? also anyone been to razorblade pinnacle?
-
plus you had to live up to your cc.com status of "Choss Cleaner"
-
well acctually you didnt miss anything except some warm olde and a stuck rope... some party that was! or mabey those sport'os should wait till mid week to climb so they dont get rained on due to the constant traffic of people on the bros traverse.
-
rock on! too bad you missed the party in the west face cave
lets finish the turkey!
-
Hells Canyon sucks.
i think you have to know the right places

i dont think he was the one belaying him. he had never tryed to free the pitches above el cap spire, so mabey i was wrong with that statement but who cares non the less.
