  1. How come no one seems to smile and enjoy themselves while out at Vantage? Just seems weird....

     

    because climbers at vantage are typically more sober than at most other climbing areas...

     

    Lies!!!

     

    I don't think I've ever been sober there.

     

    My roommate: "if you're sober(at vantage), you're doing something wrong"

     

    good quote indeed, and applicable to most situations, i would venture to reckon...way out is the way out, otter...
