  1. Yeah, I was just going to say. What were you trying to do here Mark?
  2. YOU'RE MONOTONOUS
  3. Never happened before. Got a lot of mileage on my gear, only the rope was new. Oh. Then it is an unexplainable mystery.
  4. People are messed up.
  5. Just climb with prussiks. Light, useful.
  6. She really got chalk everywhere.
  7. Radio penetrates stone?
  8. From your intended use, and with 4wd, I think you need one set of all-season tires. If that doesn't feel good enough to you, add a pair of chains in the back for really dire situations. Cheap. Not overkill. I drive an awd Subaru, so far I've had two sets of all-season tires (the stock Bridgestone Potenza RE... 72s I think, and now a set of Pirelli P-Zero Nero M/S) and I have had no trouble with snowy roads. I bought the Pirellis from Discount Tire, I walked in with the Tirerack.com price and asked them to match it. They did. If you're really going to be doing a lot of snow driving, I hear Blizzaks are the bomb. I think the ONLY reasons to get two sets of tires are if your winter is really extreme, or you want to totally rip up the asphalt in the summer with a high-performance summer tire. I don't think either of these describes your situation.
  9. Telling your parents you're a douchebag.
  10. NOOB
  11. Definitely do not bring an extra pair of rock shoes for the aid, just aid in your approach shoes. A good stiff sole is best, your toes will thank you.
  12. Sound violations get you the meatball:
  13. Uh, one lap to go is a white flag.
  14. Yeah, no shit. At 105 if anything unexpected happens you're going to die. Save the high speeds for the track.
  15. I got to drive a student's C5 around Pacific. That car is alarmingly fast. Made my little RX-7 feel like a Razor scooter.
  16. Nice attempt, sounds like you learned a lot of the things one typically learns on their first big aid climb. I like cleaning aid with one ascender and a grigri. Makes lowering off a piece very simple.
  17. I don't understand- why do softshell pants make bibs obsolete? Sounds like apples and oranges.
  18. Here is a drill that won't get you in trouble.
  19. LOSERS LOSERS LOSERS
  20. The problem is that you suck at descending. Having a drill won't fix this. Just get better at it.
  21. honda = no maintenance, not a bad expectation. Fine, drive a Honda.
  22. This is simply untrue. A hand drill, bit and several 1/4" bolts w/ hangers will weight less than a hammer. I knew some anal-retentive hyper-accurate nerd was going to chime in here and ruin it. I just figured it was going to be CBS.
  23. Hmmm, sounds like my Sube... No problem, that sounds like a 1/2 days work, and about $300 in parts. Seriously... what kind of expectations do you have? I'd admit that replacing a radiator twice on the same car is kind of out of the ordinary, but there are also few things that make a radiator go bad...
  24. is there a race up femalebox peak for the skinny guys?
