corvallisclimb

iain thats pretty fuckin funny

is there some trade route to do this or if and when people do it do they just do it their own way thanks

ha dank nuggets is right

nicee, yeah he was awsome. always interested in my ventures even didnt mark me absent a couple times when i skipped to go climbing, and always wanted to see my pictures and what not. anything else you remember? they are tearing it down next year and building a new school wich they have already started there is no more pool, parking lot or football stadium due to the construction.

hmm couple of reasons, wearing low cut tennis shoes and hiking up through the scree slope making the approach seem more direct, and the descent through the scree slope with them on makes glisading (sp?) possible on rock. i took a nols course and i got attached to them.

btw, i have never found anything about differnt routes up three fingered jack, does any one know of them? its just one of the few peaks where all i have heard about it the normal route.

nice i uhhh graduated from corvallis high about a month ago! did you ever have mr staats?

just curious what are the climbs like a coburg caves?

its close to but not exactly the real high rock, wich now has just become over run with partyin fratboys, trash and more trash. When we drove by high rock there where about 40 cars there, btw did you know the acctuall rock it self split in half and a huge peice fell off? What high school did you go to?

Climb: Three Fingered Jack-normal shiznit Date of Climb: 7/23/2004 Trip Report: I was inspired by criznitch's tr to do the same thing, so I snagged a partner and left. It had been a while since I climbed it so it was nice to be back. We stared out at the cedar shack in Sweet Home on Thursday at about 8:00pm we arrived at the trail head and hiked in till it got to dark and set up a camp waiting for a tree to fall on us. The hike in was very pleasent, walking through the fire is interesting. The first two pictures where taken during the hike in, the next was the next morning. We woke at sunrise and basically started moving right away, the misquitos came out in full force and basically drove us away. It was nice since it was cooler than it would be on the hike out. We stumbled accross the some of the plane wreckage and had to copy every one and go for the photo op, on the way back down we found one of the seats still there in the trees. The climb it self was good, someone placed a new LA at the "crux" of the crawl, as well as some new webbing scatterd around the summit area. It was really windy but perfectly clear, so it never got to hot until the hike out. All in all great day, very dusty though, I got really fuckin dirty, sooo we stopped at a favorite swimming spot on the South Santiam to jump off some rocks. flying Gear Notes: 1 nut Approach Notes: fine

yall wanna go to the sweet home boulders, pick me up in corvallis and ill take ya

someone!!!!

Jim- I'm curious do you have any photos to share? -Tyler

hmmm sounds like a case of stoners leavin there shit every where

any one know anything about it? its located near lake billy chinook off FS1499. I read about it in a friends old guide to oregon wilderness, I've got a family house out there and wondering it it would be worth a trip. all it says in the book that I remember is that theres a 5.4 route to the top. so thats all I know.

Climb: Menagerie (with pictures)- Date of Climb: 7/16/2004 Trip Report: I returned to the menagerie a week later to attempt the closer approach. All of the gates where open so we where able to get to the look out where you can see the north rabbit ear. We couldnt find the trail down to the old parking area so we just parked at the sump on 850 and hiked the extra 10 min wich still was much better than the other hike in. We hiked straight to rooster rock so I could orient my self, we climbed it again this time I didnt clip any of the bolts just threw in an extra micro cam. Brought a camera this time thats bascially the only reason i posted another TR so I could show the pictures. thats shot of my friend brad who i took with me the north face of rooster rock looking down route from rap anchors me on top her are some pictures of other rocks in the menagerie the first is of the rabbit ears the other two i dont know wich ones they are thats all thanks for your time

mmm yes, just say you dont plan on taking a tent and depending on the partner they will be forced by there weakness into carrying the tent.

I'm new to aid but so very interested and motivated to learn. If there is any one out there that wants to teach me, have me be their belay slave so i can watch or something please let me know. ive practiced clean aid in cracks, climbed bolt ladders etc, but dont know any one interested enough to persue aid with me. i have a pretty good sized rack, and some hooks wich ive practiced with as well. i will buy you beer or get you high , just as long as we can do some aid climbing first. thank you tyler

how do i add multiple pictures to my post

just got back from the menagerie again today, the back way in is open! climbed rooster rock again this time i didnt use any of the fixed pro, just placed 2 more cams. wich was fun and easy. this time a took a couple pictures of climbing and some of the other formations wich i will post.

Climb: Rooster Rock (Menagerie Wilderness)-Regular North Face w/ 5.6 variation Date of Climb: 7/9/2004 Trip Report: I took 2 of my female friends up rooster rock today, my first time as well. We slogged up the 2000ft in 2 miles approach trail, wich definatly keeps the masses away. Didnt quite know what to expect so I carried my whole rack wich was completly unessesary. We only had one rope with three people so I led up to where there where two old bolts from when there was a fire tower, belayed the girls up to there. Then led the last 60ft to the summit, there was a long run out at the end that was acctually pretty fun cuz the climbing was easy. Brought the girls up one at a time, it was awsome seeing there expressions when they peered over the rock to see the veiw, it was definatly a first for them. I lowerd em down to the middle anchors then lowerd my self to there, we all rapped on our own from there and called it a day. I was totaly stoaked with the trip, at first I was a little nervous taking the girls out, but everything went perfectly. I can't wait to get out there and do some of the other climbs there, that wilderness is just awsome. Gear Notes: 3 draws, #4 HB flex cam, #5 & #8 power cam

Is there any place in Oregon that has some good aid climbs, nothing to hard mabey A2+ at the most, something that protects well. I would really love to get my skills down as an aid climber. Thanks

thanks guys, Dodges was the one i was thinking of and could not remember. any of you know where to get ahold of that? ill check amazon but thats about my only idea.

I tryed e-mailing him but that one didnt seem to work. If you could email me at @ corvallisdmbtaper@hotmail.com with any info he gave you that would be awsome.

does any one have a list of most of the rock climbing guides related to oregon and where they can be found. i've heard of ones about the willamette valley but never seen anything.
