I am looking at the CAG right now. Slaphappy, you are right. The image below is the 3 musketeers, not Toketie Buttress. This thread has more redacted information than a Bush Admin. study on global warming. Funny, that people get proprietary with info on some dirty crags four hours of uphill hiking from the road. Anyway, anyone else have any idea what the tower on the right is? D'artanian? Musketeer? Its south facing on the north side of Temple Canyon, across and east from the Black Pyramid, Professor, etc.

I wonder if they'll let him keep the wheelchair with wrist restraints once he's recovered. Could be useful after finding "lost" hikers.

He fell. But it wasn't the fall that killed him. It was the ground.

Joke? True story. Happened to me the other day. ... water was really deep too.

Three dudes are dangling their units off a bridge, peeing. One guy says to the others, the air sure is cold. The next guy says, the water's cold down there too. Then the third guys says, yeah, water sure is deep, too.

But we must retain the same leadership, we have a crisis on our hands here. THE GAYS ARE GETTING MARRIED!

Hey Donny, does your sister drive a Pontiac too? 'Cause everyone knows chics who drive beater cars put out.

Why just when you get older?

That's usually part of my light and fast alpine strategy, because then I don't have to bring any food or a sheep.

Put it in the freezer.

When me and my blond-hair, blue-eye climbing partner went into do Bear last summer, sans passport, they made us get out and talk to Canadian Immigration. The chearful clerk took one look at us, pronounced us to clearly be good, wholesome, clean American mountain climbers and bid us adieau. Some wool was pulled that day.

National Park, not Provincial Park. Fucking monarchists, geez.

According to CBS, Matt was saying categories 2 and 3 are the same. CBS and I were saying they are different.

I'll often clip both if its a bolt or a super bomber piece. I disagree with Matt. Rope stretch could clearly equal a couple KNs and that could make the difference b/w a piece blowing or not, especially something like a micro wire, where the wire will break before the piece blows - if the rock is good.

Skinnier ropes stretch more and therefore put less impact force on the pro too. That might have been what you just said CBS, but I couldn't translate all that geek-speak into engrish.

They'll probably start busting climbers for going into Bear ...

I was looking at that wall last summer on our way to the NW face. In fact, I think I told you about it. Thief! Oh well, its still yet to be completed ... Where is the line you climbed in relation to the line in Beckey's CAG, circa 1970(?)?

That's because snowboarding is fucking stupid.

You must have found a victim, er I mean partner.

No its not. Its about $3.00 / gallon in my neighborhood.

Wow. Thanks for the history, and correction.

Too busy playing with his camera.

OK. But I'm not spooning with you in the "altitude chamber"

If you pay for the peak fees and transportation costs I'll aspire to climb K2, and I'll even let your "doctor" do tests and shit.
