Nice work guys!! Reminds me how much shit people did last winter and summer. Right on. BTW, who's the dude in the picture above? Whoever he is he looks like a rockstar model. He should be sponsored or something. -
I'd get one from a dancer that looks like she's showered recently.

Been wanting to get on that fucker for a while. Guess I'll have to now. Nice work! -
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2003237467_webindecency31.html I suppose I have to start wearing pants at Starbucks too now. Geez.

That pan is a sweet shot. Gary would probably tell you it has too many pixels per square nanomicrometer or sumthin, but I'd say its the shit.

But all those pic's of Miles Smart and Sean Courage are sooooo rad.

100 % organic.

Right. Beer is beer. Some is good, some ain't.

See my Rampage TR- if you didn't have your cornflakes for breakfast, you'll find them up there. On that note, this is the third route in Burdo's book that came with rave reviews but has been decidedly subpar in my opinion. Clean Break isn't a bad climb but Mike points out the issues. The worst by far was his rec of the East buttress of NEWS ("Flycatcher"). In the same book he downrates Liberty Crack and Freedom Rider for "bad rock", comes this recommendation. Flycatcher is a pile: 5.6 bushwhacking sprinkled with decomposing, cheese grater 5.10 jamming cruxes. Burdo's book cracks me up. While its obviously a great resource for some obscure routes, he explicitly says East Face of Lex, Freedom Rider, and Lib Crack are overrated (presumptively b/c he wasn't the one to put them up)- but those are arguably the best routes at the pass!

Kevbone needs to be sedated.

Camping in the silver star basin may also be an option. Closer to Vasiliki for sure.

Yeah but I thought it was only Grade I, 5.8. -
Come on now, he doesn't want to get hurt.

And there's no bolts every two feet.

Apparently half way through the fourth movement, he threw in some super trippy experimental oboe solos.
-
Wasn't a very good pilot though.
-
No running water available. Windy. Small dirty bivy spot. Views are better though.
-
I think I went to that with my parents when I was in 5th grade. Or maybe it was the Beach Boys. can't remember.
-
It IS sucky. Off - nice plug for your route. One of these days when I'm not sick of lichen I'm going to head up and repeat it.

I got on it a few years back. Enjoyed the climbing up to the bold roofs. It was more like mountain climbing than most routes as Squish, with some vegetation and dirt. I didn't see anything viable through the roofs that I was willing to do so we rapped from there. I think its worth doing and should be free from crowds.
-
You think your special b/c you have established bolted routes? Just means you're too much of a poofer to do any real climbing.
-
I bet Layton would do that pro boner. chelle - LifeWise is who offered me the $50 / month quote. So far that's the best. Self insured isn't a great option for me. I don't need any health care, I just need catastrophic in case I break something or something falls on my head or if I need a penis implant or something.
-
Its a stupid fucking question in the first place. Both techniques are appropriate in certain circumstances. You can fuck up a route and the rock using either technique. Don't put in inapropriate bolts and don't bolt over other people's lines.

Thanks Lowell! Looking forward to it!

Yeah, Middle Fork was EASY this time of year. Green Creek required some shenanigans - those rocks are slickery!
