I have a couple general questions regarding rapelling and belaying from above. First is about rapelling. What is the best method/device used for rapelling? I have been using a super 8, which works well for me, but twists the rope pretty bad. Basically wondering which method/device works best, with minimal rope twist. Second question is on belaying from above. Which method/device is most commonly used for belaying from above? If there is one. From reading on belay methods it seems that belaying from above using a munter hitch directly from the anchor seems pretty safe. I realize that its all preference for most climbers, but some methods must have advantages and disadvanatges. Any advice from seasoned climbers would be great. Thanks.

Thanks catbird and weekend climberz.

I have never been to exit 38. Could someone possibly shoot me some directions? Via email, pm, or your method of choice. I know its exit 38 off of I-90 but then were do you go? Is it right off the exit?

I'll take you up on Adams, just shoot me an email.

Daughters are the greatest!! Congrats!!

I'll go. Message me and we can discuss further plans.

I'd be interested also, and yes I understand the mechanical properties of a scrub brush and how it works matt.

That's fucked up and scary. I dont want to have to take my pistol on hikes, it weighs to fucking much. What's wrong with some people these days.

I might me game if nothing else pops up. I never been there though. What's the average rating on the routes there? Is there permanent protection placed on the routes? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all

Hey, anyone want to head to marymoore park in redmond to play around on there wall today. I can bring all the gear, including and extra harness if needed. If anyone is interested send me a pm or email at tim dot mcginness at gmail dot com I'll check back often.

I can't bring a keg, it wont fit in my car . But I can bring cases. Got an empty fridge? Or a shitload of coolers? I dont know Kurt, but I hope he has a full recovery. For everyone being this enthused about helping a guy out, he must be pretty damn cool. Oh the 22nd works for me.

Im interested. Hit me up at tim dot mcginness at gmail dot com
