yeah focused on clean aid last summer!!! Have a fifi... one of the first aid pieces I bought, make life so easy, I use it free climbing to help with anchors

So I moved to the Bay area so I could be close to the big stone. Now I just need to put my big wall kit together. Looking For: Jumars- Petzl Aiders metal grigri hammer offsets nuts or cams I know that there are several climbers that bought all this shit but just don't use it anymore. Help out an aspiring aid monkey:)

Just a digression from the thread topic. I hiked in to Strobach with a couple other cc.com'ers yesterday and nothing was in, and had let Kevin know after I returned. the Unclimbed A, watchtower,and errection direct stand as unclimbed for yet year....woop

pics?

Shave it down by shaving your legs, balls, and hair to cut down on wind resistence.

no not the quarter inchers but 3/8inch anyone have any of these that they want to get rid of? I will take them off your hands and I promise not to place them anywhere near where you are going to climb. HA

the rock looks way to solid for WI7....

no that another one of tyler's projects. nice work getting out and getting after smith...its a beautiful time of year to be there. I think the colors are more vibran in the winter. very jealous

super sick photo thanks for the stoke Dane, makes me wish I was on the weeping wall with ya instead of chilling in my cube...boo

sounds like someone need to go climb the unrepeated Matriarch in Hylite: WI 7 5.11+, gear. Take a look at what real WI7 looks like. WI7 is supposed to be similar to A5; No gear that would hold on countinous overhanging delicate ice with a crappy anchor. Can't blame them for never climbing on Hylite or Cody.

looks like a lot of fun, beautiful views. look at the ice on the west face of sloan...anyone going to get it this year. looks prime

Its my birthday on Saturday and I am looking to climb, prefer ICE, need parnter that wants to drive with me from the bay area to the east side for some ice. I am the rope gun, so I need a belay partner and someone to keep me awake for the drive. PM or shoot me an email bryan_schmitz@yahoo.com cheers, bryan schmitz

Wondering where is the best place to find conditions reports for lee vinning. anyone have a website that is updated often? thanks, bryan

that was to stop mulkey from going up there and snagging some of the "other" stuff up there. wasn't me.....one of those other OLDER guys

Just a coffee? cheerz you can give him a coffee you can give the rope gun........

vipers!!! I am not cool enough for the Cool-bra's

nope not like WA. far more routes, far better quality, not to mention that they are all found in the same canyon.

I find the cheapest way to stay in cody is to go around and pit the hotels against each other. There are only about a half dozen that operate during the winter. Rates are usually around $55 a night +/-$10 at any of them. I perfer to stay in the hotel next to bubbas BBQ. It has a hot tub, and is close to bubbas. If your negotiaging skills are up to par I bet you could find something for $50. Good Luck.

Yup, good dude! I'll tip one as well! To a year of your best climbing and no injuries John! Happy birthday! Bryan, speaking of spray and FAs: did you ever post that TR of your summer vacation that included a first ascent on the Devils Tower and a whole bunch of other sh*t? Did I miss what would be THE best trip report of the summer? more refering to other firsts that will be occuring in Johns life this year.....non climbing firsts

Thank you for a leason on how to word a proper sentance fragment. "That to say" haha; made me laugh at my desk, co-workers looked over at me with concerned faces.

heres to a great year with many first's....

is this pre spray for another radtacular TR? this is a picture stoke thread...not a chest beat thread.

Where is my mini trax? Sent money over two weeks ago and no word...this is your offical call out. Don't make me send my thugs your way.

I never really bulked up from @fit in the first place... I actually lost 10 lbs the first month I started it. That said Gym Jones has me on a program + diet that has allowed me to drop ~7 lbs of muscle mass without seeing any major losses in my strength since last July. If I stay on track I should lose my MOG status some time next year Lose your MOG status...thought you were always proud of that.
