Light weight convertible softshells???
powderhound replied to powderhound's topic in The Gear Critic
I did some checking around and haven't really came up with anything else, anyone got any other suggestions? -
Now I know I could go a surf a bunch of manufactures sites but I figured I would ask first. I am looking for a pair of light weight soft shell pant that are convertible. This will be used mostly for alpine rock climbing. Anyone have any good ideas for me?

There is a new guide out, as of 2006 i think. Also august is a good time to go been there and enjoyed myself. Make sure you spend a day at castle rocks, the climbing out there is really good and you will see less people.

Sounds like a conspiracy if you ask me. -

[TR] Matthes Crest - S to N Traverse 7/8/2007
powderhound replied to off_the_hook's topic in California
Last weekend I went and soloed up to the north summit pitch with my buddy, and then roped up for the 5.8 down climbing off the North Summit. Didn't bring enough water on route. We figure if you roped it out it would be over 23 full pitches. Over a mile of climbing. The first part is blissful and the second exciting. We found it most efficient to short rope it. Round trip: 10 hours including a little post climb safety meeting in the meadow. -
So I read another article today that just pissed me off. It has been my impression that the buck stops at the president, that the responsibility lies with him, that he is the person who makes the final decision. However, it seems as though some people are trying to pass on the blame to the VP. It just completely irritates me that now we don't even try to have accountability where it matters the most.

If you didn't know trout creek was in the last photo annual of climbing.

You pretty much need a hazmat suit to go into that place during the spring. The ticks there are crazy out of control

So I am down in the Bay area for a the summer internship. To end my internship I want to head up to the Napa valley for a little wine. I have been trying to get some good information on doing tours but everything I come across seems so commercial. I am curious if anyone has done one before and If they would be willing to point me in the right direction. Looking for information such as which city to stay at. Best way to travel between the wineries. Cheap places to stay. Ect....

Partner wanted Blodgett Canyon MT - Blackfoot Dome
powderhound replied to spotly's topic in Climbing Partners
You need to go do: My Mama's Muscle shirt, an Alex Lowe Classic -
Are you sure about that.....I mean there is a Cali section for posting TR's, as well as Montana and Idaho yet they are not northwest. Furthermore, numerous people post looking for partners for places such as peru, europe, or elsewhere. So if you plan on trying to climb with me then sack up if not try and not open your mouth when you don't have any idea what you are talking about.

Looking for someone to climb with this weekend at Tuolumne. Would prefer someone who can hold their own, as far as leading and moving efficiently; however, I am not going to be picky so this could be an opportunity for someone to be a belay buddy and climb some stuff they normally wouldn't get on. Thinking of doing mostly domes, maybe hiking back to the incredible hulk area. Get back to me

About 3/4's of the staircase was wet and my buddy aided those sections to keep on pace.
