  1. At least 6.5 on the Mohs scale I'd say.
  2. Yes, shortening the rope is a very good idea. I usually aim for about 20m. Yes, you have to be in tune with your partner and move at roughly the same pace. Simulclimbing IS "free-climbing" (as opposed to "aid climbing"). "You must not fall" is the mental mantra to keep you focused on each foothold and handhold and to keep three points of contact at all times. Of course, if you were absolutely sure that you weren't going to fall, you wouldn't need the rope, but even when we think we are absolutely sure about something, we can be wrong.
  3. Roast? That was some original Flash prose there. I couldn't make that shit up.
  4. Wedgewood Broiler or Wedgewood Ale House or Fiddler's Inn I don't think the "Wedgewood Bar & Grill" exists.
  5. Yeah, but if I'm 40ft out from my last piece I'm pretty much considering myself as "soloing". I think that's what Colt45 was saying and I agree.
  6. Alright. I think we got that question answered. Anybody have any pictures of dolphin/buick hybrids they'd like to share?
  7. Sorry for my flippant initial response. It's a good question. Simulclimbing is for climbing the easy, but still 5th class, pitches inbetween the harder pitches on a longer climb. This allows you to do the climb in the shortest amount of time possible thereby making the whole experience safer (less exposure to objective hazard and weather) and more fun (less gear to carry, avoidance of uncomfortable on-route bivies). It is not as safe as belayed climbing and should therefore only be done on terrain that is well below each climber's limit. Another random note: the stronger climber should go second and neither climber is allowed to fall.
  8. My boyfriend has a small dick as well. OMG! I wouldn't admit that dude.
  9. You haven't done much alpine climbing have you?
  10. Thanks.
  11. Bombs? Elk? That ice climbing stuff sounds dangerous!
  12. This pretty much sums it up for me:
  13. MMMmmm..... Valkyries.... I spent like four hours shading their upper lips.
  14. A winter ascent is something that climbers like to argue about. It's also the one having the least fun.
  15. I'm just an ankle-biting punter hanging from the sturdy and impressive manhood of the one and only DFA. .
  16. My mom is a social worker for retarded kids. I didn't know you were one of her clients. Makes sense though.
  17. I see those "Hooked on Phonics" tapes you got for Xmas are paying off. Mom would be proud.
  18. Just like kevbone rhymes with dumbshit.
  19. The oldest one is the one having the most bone.
  20. TheNodder is the one having the most fun.
  21. Congrats on convincing your partner to drive their car.
