Both situations would be fine for toproping in most situations. The thickness of your cordelette and slings might make one have a different opinion.

16) ... If you can't climb 5.12.

Curious, Anyone been up Icicle Canyon lately - are the wasps frozen/dead. Thanks.

Damn, $3/gal around these parts would be a good price right now. I think I paid $3.09 yesterday. It's the weekend now, so I guess the prices should go up again.

What's hear? Some new type of gear?

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember hearing somewhere that there is a cap on what you can sue for too - $250,000 rings a bell for some reason. Which is a major rip off.

I'll trade you. I "have" a mtnbike that I don't need. Steeling someone's gear is the worst!

Estimator/Engineer for commercial construction.

I've got a pair of public enemies - good for somethings, not for others. They're too soft to shread steep bumps. If you're going to use them pretty much only in the park - they're good, All-mountain - maybe not as good.

About 12 hours!

Who knew there were so many wasps in Icicle Canyon. Every place I went I saw swarms of wasps all over the cracks - it looked like they really liked the cruxes too. Is this typical this time of year - I guess I never knew it was this bad??

Locals call it the 'Burque. Spoken as Burrrr-Kay. The ski area is Sandia Peak Ski area and, in short, sucks. I've never climbed in the Sandias, but now that I don't live there, I'd like to go back and climb there a bit (probably just for a bit though).

Again, I must say Slayer - they all have ass kicking beats. Just a few that fit this situation: Here Comes the Pain War Ensemble Spill the Blood I Hate You Or, they make good climbing songs...

I'd say Slayer has the best fighting songs ever...

Check PM.

What are you guys complaining about? Don't you want that sweet special forces game?

Is Buttlips the 3rd pitch where you undercling under the roof and kind of traverse climber's left to the arete?

Thanks!

I searched prior to asking but found endless flaming threads and have some route finding concerns. Can someone PM me a topo for Infinite Bliss? I don't want to rehash squabling, just looking for beta. Thanks.

My doc is telling me a couple/few weeks for recovery. I'd prefer not to blow 2 months of good climbing weather, but it sounds like recovery varies - probably on how messed up the knee is in the first place. Thanks.

Lead it. It's much funner that way. Be smart and protect often if it makes you feel more relaxed. The moves aren't hard - it's probably mental cruxing.

Let's get out this weekend. Was thinking 11worth, but might be too HOT. Forecast for North Bend area looks good, or somewhere's else. Before my knee gets the chop!

Is it worth getting the orthroscopic surgery? Anyone have any words of advice? The technical term is Orthroscopic Lateral Menisectomy - I scheduled this for next week thinking there's no solution other than surgery. Thanks for any stories or info.

I'm with dmuja - no bolts. That big block has seen plenty of belays already and it hasn't come down. If you link the last two crack pitches, I think you might not have much of a choice of belays (if you want to get on flatter ground anyway) - from what I remember.
