What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? African or European swallow? I don't know! ahhhhhhh!

sobo.. does your sig have to do with the bridge of death scene in the holy grail????

'the word'

you guys go way to deep in your 'philosophical' arguments ... post something us dumb kids can understand...

are there any other summer ice/mixed around our area dru? A friend from washington is coming out to do some climbing in August and wouldnt mind doing an alpine ice route...

that would suck if it was melted out.... whats the trail into the east side like now?

I think wednesday should be: post many pictures of hot babes day.... that could be a good idea.

Does any body know what descending the NE ridge of Rexford is like? Are there good rap stations and such? I want to traverse the mountain twice in a day by climbing: west face, descend NE ridge, climb SE couloir to south ridge,climb south ridge, descend west ridge.... if the NE ridge is a good descent that would be a sick trip....

just buy an orbital sander if you dont know what ur foing...if your a bit more skilled with that stuff use a belt sander.. that would be fast.

if you are uysually climbing in a gym just learn to lead there.. but dont get used to the draws being so close together otherwise you will be a total puss when you start leading outside ...

if you are going to take a 'prectice fall' (I really dont recommend this) do it on bolts.. not gear! and wear a helmet! there was a fatality in squamish b/c someone 'practiced falling' on gear w/o a helmet...

that hand crack on p2 or 3 looks wicked!!! good job guys... i mean girls

totally... well protected face climbing all the way... it definitely doesnt have any offwidths or squeeze chimneys... just bolted face climbing... dont z-clip!

Uh....following a pitch is top roping.

really watch that you dont step behind your rope and get flipped upside down in a fall... make sure you dont backclip your draws and dont worry too much about z-clipping because that only happens indoors where the clips are too close together. My first lead was a 5.9 in Chek.... aside from my hundreds of indoor leads.... you may feel quite nervous until you fall a few times and are okay, then your nerves settle down. Try an overhanging or vertical route where the fall is clean... slab climbs are okay if there are no ledges...

some plans include: Slesse, North Rib ... Urquart, NE Ridge... Vienesse, South face... Bardean, Tuning Fork, or Clarke, North Ridge.... although I dont know how bad the CHehalis range access is right now...

definitely the Willis Wall

no man.. thats when he got abducted by aliens Use of a Protective Aura seems overly cautious in those conditions.

Yeah, mountains are just teleporting from place to place these days... soon K2's gonna be in our back yard!

It isnt really a hike but the Bowron lake Canoe circuit is phenomenal. 120 km's of amazing scenic lakes and rivers. Definitely a must do. Too bad its in Canada though....

yep.. Reinhard put up Pacemaker on the North Face of Robbie Ried... I think he also did the FWA of Judge Howay...

Nice... that is definitely on my list of things to do!

Thanks off-white.... I did leave some of my rack on Slesse, if you are sure that you are going to throw them away I will pay you something for the Hexes.. I have no idea what camlocks are though.

yeah... the direct approach was reapeatedly bombarded by seracs... anybody who tried it that day would have died...

God is supposed to be capitalized.
