  3. I need to be honest with you all: I don't know what to think of this website. magellan: Eligibility for the three categories of Latin Honors (summa cum laude, magna cum laude and cum laude) at Duke are based on the cumulative grade point average for all work at Duke. Recipients are determined by the following procedure (and I quote): The grade point average included within the highest five percent of the previous year's graduating class is used to specify the grade point average needed by those students of the current graduating class to be awarded the summa cum laude honor. The grade point average included within the next highest ten percent of the previous year's graduating class is used to determine the grade point average needed by those students who will graduate with the magna cum laude honor. Finally, the grade point average included within the next ten percent of the previous year's graduating class will be used to determine those students eligible for graduating with the cum laude honor. Thus, about twenty-five percent of each graduating class will receive Latin Honors. I graduated Magna Cum Laude at Duke. Anybody willing to recommend a guidebook regardless of their Via Ferrata stance? Trav
  4. You forgot a lot safer too! I see all sorts of accidents in the ER. Though we don't have a lot of climbers in the midwest/Tennessee area and I personally haven't seen a climbing related accident yet I know it happens and I think we can prevent injury related accidents we should. I think I heard a stat that more rock climbers than motorcycle riders are killed/injured every year.
  5. Hi Fern How long are you hoping to borrow those guidebooks? How soon do you need them? Trav
  6. DirtyHarry: those areas you listed... they don't currently have Via Ferrata style climbs or no climbing at all? I can't believe what I am reading... Are you saying you guys don't have any Via Ferrata routes? I heard from a few people that Washington State was one of the more active climbing areas in the United States... how can this be true if you don't have any VF routes? Perhaps I am just misunderstanding your reply. Roboboy: Perhaps I wasn't specific enough in my post; I am from Fort Collins but am not moving back to CO anytime soon. Thanks for the suggestion though; I actually already own that guidebook. Man I miss the fort! Where are the pickets? Are they in a guidebook? Thanks everyone for the info so far!
  7. Hi Cascadeclimbers! I am moving to Seattle from Tennessee in the coming year; I'm super excited to be returning to a state with mountains (I'm originally from Ft Collins). I'm told Washington has a lot climbing. Can anyone recommend any local guidebooks? I am particularly interested in Via Ferrata type climbing so if any of the guidebooks detail Via Ferrata climbs please list those. I did some in a recent trip to France and I loved it! Trav
