Gene is a good guy, fun partner and highly capable if that helps you make up your mind. Oh yeah, don't fall for the old "shoulder injury" line....The guy is an animal!

I am an inquiring kind of guy, hence the question. Feck - I fully agree and understand the point(s) made in your post. Really not trying to start shit but to ask, what I feel, is a legitimate question. I do not envy the job of the moderators but do appreciate the forum and the work you all do. Thanks for at least taking the time to post an answer/personal opinion on this topic.

Agreed gentlemen. "at a certain point it stops being funny and becomes something rather more ugly." A modicum of transparancy would do well to lessen the asssumptions/speculation as to reasoning. Not that the moderators need to "explain" their actions, but it would possibly quell some of the perceptions of uneven handling of situations.

That is one way to look at it.

Curious as to the thought process here: We have a topic posted in Climbers Board, it is ridiculous and the spray nozzle starts to flow, so the topic is moved the "spray" (appropriate, yes), but then after some fun is had suddenly it is locked down? Are we protecting people in the spray forum as well now? Are we protecting the original poster who clearly could choose to no longer participate at will? Not really a criticism just a question about the reasoning.

I'm consistently surprised how little physical effort is required to exceed the "quit and turn around" threshold of most people, even "climbers". I'm not boasting. I don't get out that much. But the times I've worked, I've consistently been alone. - yep!

I actually prefer to move uphill away from the masses and sleep in the dirt. It would be a pity if I got any softer than I already am. Wait a minute, Wetslide are you flipping hitting on me?

And the address is?

not friends g-spotter, just buddies. My only true friend is loneliness.

The ticks are really freaking bad right now too! My buddy pulled forty seven (47) off his left ankle alone. Poor bastard is damn near out of blood! My other buddy got bitten by seventeen (17) baby rattlesnakes all at one time! Luckily he had been slowly building up an immnunity to rattlesnake poisin over the last few years.

I am definitely not afraid of or likely to die from the approach. thanks for the input Puget. May have to bore the CC masses with a Leavenworth cragging tr.

Right on Dan! WOW!

Surprised? It is not raindawg it is rainman.

Definitely worthy of bump!

Awesome 10,000 gnar points!

Nice photos Alasdair, especially number 6.

Will do.

No one has EVER been there? I really want to know if the routes lead up to their multi star ratings.

Anyone been up to the value village crags? wondering if it is worth the steep climb up. Looks pretty cool.

Omg summitchaser?? If only I was so cool! Or do you think it is the great one himslef soliciting the trade for firearms?

"cash only or trade for guns"

Training it is. Smedley only had 4 as well. Amazing I know!

Man- and I just got done talking you up! Dude 4 beers a piece for the weekend does not make for drunks or hardly buzzed for that matter. Now riff raff, well yes that is indisputable. I am sure Crystal Cave still smells like Cavenadians...and goats.

Well Played Mr. K! Riley and Ben are freaking great guys, who are always out for fun and play it safe enough to keep coming and going back. Nothing wrong with that. Not to mention that Riley is a freaking machine when it comes to breaking trail! Once again, way to go boyz!
