LandShark

Thinker, yeah its possible, but then these guys would likely have seriously screwed up by having lots of slack in the line while belaying someone down in a rescue situation and/or not having the belayer tied into the rope when the belayer was tied into the anchor. If they had the system dialed in right, I think its pretty unlikely.

Throwing up your hands and saying people are too stupid to get it doesn't really advance the ball at all. Tell them what you think, plain and simple. Silence=consent. Don't like it? Speak up regardless of whether they will change their views. Some won't but some will.

Gary, while quoting from Freedom of the Hills, you miss my point entirely. I'll now have to eat you. Candygram.

Is that really what a self-arrest is?! Wow you learn something new every day. The guy posited that Kelly James 1) summitted, 2) dislocated his shoulder trying to self-arrest on descent, 3) failed at self-arresting, and 4) then crawled into a cave after his partners fell to the glacier below. So I ask again, if he blows his shoulder in a failed self-arrest, why wouldn't he have taken the big ride with his partners.

How would he dislocate his shoulder in a failed self arrest and yet not get pulled off the mountain with his buddies?

dolphins are pussies. and their stupid.

The Land Shark is far more cleverer.

Did they have people back then?

I ate his momma.

Looks like r2d2 has been hittin the juice.

Bill, you should have more faith in the media to report accurate unbiased information. What about these guys?

The Land Shark would serioulsy fuck up a pussy Tauntaun. They don't even exist you idiots!!

Is the Land Shark really the cleverest species?

Huh? Did you wake and bake? Set down the pipe and go to work now. The cleverest species of them all.

Definitely wasn't the landshark.

Just as long as they don't close the mountain due to landshark sitings!' Who ordered the candygram?

kevbone, i've got a candygram for you.

You'll need shark fins and a candygram to climb this route solo.
