  1. Really doubt you will be gettin any gear or anything else for that matter for or from a woman so why ask?
  2. You will have to do Viens of Glory if 10b is ok for you. Great fun climb and cool balancy start. Its bolted. Let me know how you cleared the roof/overhng section near the top. haha
  3. I did the same thing back in 2005. Was out completely for about 10 months of total non shoulder activities. Even skiing put a strain on the area. Have a chiro/sports med doc in the area who after 4 visits put me back together. I was amazed how fast he helped me. Got to rest the area for awhile. Then easy rehab. I would quit the climbing for a little bit. Look at it this way. Is climbing 5.6 easy stuff just to get your fix worth not climbing at all in the future. Beleive me I had the burn to climb so bad, my mood was grim for awhile. But there will be a future if you act appropriately now.
  4. nice link there. gives some good quality info on the fires all over the country.
  5. domke lake up lake chelan holden was evacked yesterday
  6. High energy is what this ones all about. Wiemaraner. Super athletic and can run for days, but the snow factor is not good. To thin and not enough fur. For other than winter sports this ones a keeper for sure. Selective breeding is pure becuase you do not mix different breeds of dogs. When a dog is bred with others of the same breed for selected traits(ie; retrieving, workin birds, exceptional nose, calm nature, aggresive nature) that is the definition of A PURE BREED. Not sure why you would not call a dog that has been bred for 300 to 400 years with the same breed a pure bred
  7. First, learn how to use crampons, when u cant master that buy a Gore Tex patch kit from any outdoor shop. They work very well if you can follow the instructions. Good luck, sounds like u will need it.
  8. You know every1 makes such a big deal about ticks all the time. Whats the big deal. There are insects everywhere and they are always buzzing about. What about black flies that take a big mfing bite outta u. Now that hurts. Ticks dont hurt they are just a minor annoyance. Plus the fun of tick checks wit your female partner{s} after.
  9. Pearly gates, snow creek wall, clems holler, trundle dome and everywhere else in the 'cicle and 'water rattlers can and will b found. Its not like this is new news. They are always here.
  10. Head 2 trundle dome. Has 4 or 5 nice climbs combo gear and bolts. Careno is good as well. Lots more in the Trundle dome area, underhill, sam hill, ski track cracks, dont forget arete, we skid and woof woof roof.
  11. Crackima..... yep always up there
  12. Rocks commin up at me head real fast when I was an idiot and hooked an edge droppin into chute 10 at MR on the last day. Coulda been the beer...? or just my lack of skillz. Scratched over em and dropped into a little hole that stopped me. Me head was OK
  13. page 128, 2 editions ago, leavenworth rock. Castle Rock Routes.
  14. Man look at all those stains!
  15. By fusing the vertabrate the next one in line up and down recieve additional stresses to compensate. I have heard wildly varing stories about the level of success. Exhaust all options prior to the cut. It sounds like you have tried alot. I compression fractured my back in 1990 in an off road motorcycle accident. T3,T4, and T5. Had tons of down time and pain. But I never got cut on. I rested and when ready, afterlike 3 months, I slowly started doing rehab. It was a bitch and the most painfull thing I have gone through in my life. Not the injury but the rehab after. It worked and I am in better shape now than before the accident. The rehab can be hell but worth it. I kow every situation is diff and I hope you have great luck with whatever you decide 2 do.
  16. 2 editions ago there was not 128 pages of climbs. Shows how much you know, lol
  17. Wow im surprised you can get up that thing. I thought Givlers would be hard for you.
  18. its all still snowy cant climb a thing here yet stay home.
  19. Thanks alot Dean, what an azzhole. Only takes 1 stupid act to get our azzes out. Gee, lets go climb something real public, real off limits and see what happens. A....gee....idunno maybe no climbing. Deans my hero....NOT
  20. really a shame if it happens.....
  21. Hell he just washed the slings in a mixture of white gas and diesel fuel, he thought they were dirty. Surprisingly they got quite clean. Almost so clean you couldnt see em anymore
  22. Ya, Potter did us all a really big favor didnt he? azzhole. He has like all the time in the world to climb and he has to climb prob the most sacred of arches in a national park WTF? If you had the time to climb all the time and anything you want do you think this is something you would do. Nice way to get us kicked out of all climbing in the parks. Wonder how the climbing comm will react when that happens. Potter has skills, he should put them 2 use for good not BAD.
  23. Its not stolen if you leave it behind. Just the kind of shit im talkin bout. people leave draws on routes, its commonplace, but im sure bonehead will steal them all. if its not yours its stealin. Yes we leave draws in puplic places but its proper climbing etiquette to leave that stuff alone. If your takin it your not a climber your a thief. If I see draws bein takin I am confrontin the theif and well see what happens then. Wow, cannot beleive that so called climbers have such a differing tude about this. Maybe I should pen a climbing etiquette book. Probably do you all more good than another guide book.
  24. dark shawdows is cool a 5.8 gear route that can turn 5.11 if you continue all the way up over the roof. we did it on our rest day. finish up and throw your ropes out into the sun. By the time we had hiked up oak creek canyon for lunch and come back, ropes dry and ready for the brass wall. rr is sweet multi pitch country.
