Indeed! I am loving the photos. This is some great stuff and what I would really enjoy seeing more of around here. Thanks.

It is about time!

absolutely..it (climbing,making videos,etc.) are about nothing when it is all said and done. So why take any of it so seriously? The comments, the video, the back and forth about bolting ethics in other threads, the Raindawgs, the Josephs the Summitchasers the Josh Lewis's, the Tysong's it is all a big excercise in gumflap jaw-knifing. I fell into it when I first found this site. I posted some TR's, I got some compliments from people I had heard about and thought were cool. I started typing alot before thinking about what I was posting. I ended up spraying shit about a friend (in a non intentional way) and I ended up pissing some people off. I hid behind a fake user name and thought I was pretty cool. I ended up abandoning that profile and switched to my real name. I started just kind of lurking the site and resisting the urge to just post up whatever hit my brain before the self censor chip kicked in. I regretfully broke that good streak tonight and did so in someones TR. I envy those with more self control than I. I apologize Summit and I am in no way trying to "humble" you. Like Gene said it is all about nothing so I will reserve my comments and consider this fact before criticizing or posting again. Cheers and keep climbing, Tyson

Nah, don't stop. Steves right we don't have to watch them. Maybe I am pissed (not really pissed, just shit flipping) because you have bigger nuts than I do. I make videos of climbs. It is fun. I share them with friends.Maybe I just don't want the exposure of throwing them out there. I don't know, your are the psych graduate, help me out. I am out getting what I can when I can, as a somewhat new father that is less than it has been in the past, but I am getting some. I manage almost every other weekend. I have just kind of stopped spraying about it so much. Maybe I am just getting old and my ego is starting to simmer down. Maybe I am finding some humility in life and starting to listen and watch instead of puff up and strut. Someone on here has a great signature line it goes something like "it is hard to learn(listen?) while you are talking" or something along those lines. Yet hear I am typing more on this site than I have in months. Anyway, keep posting your videos with the understanding that yeah, you are probably going to get shit. Yeah people don't have to watch them. And yeah you don't HAVE to post them. No hard feelings Summit, just roll with it.

Agreed. again, agree. Posting practice videos though...... Kind of Uncle Ricco'esque IMHO.......... Maybe humor us with your point Summitchaser? are you looking for kudos, cheers, respect, shit flipping, attention regardless of type? I just don't get it. My lack of understanding does not come from an ignorance of technology.

I want my 4 minutes back.

I like that way of thinking. Especially

That looks sweet! This is the best time of year I think.

Murphy you are an animal! Did you hit the water with the boys again this week? Those barges are something huh?

What a great TR! The climb was sweet looking and the video editing was fantastic. Thanks for putting that together and sharing!

Great Job! Sweet Pics! This has been an exciting season for Squire Creek Wall! I cannot wait for the ques next season. Cheers man!

To both of you .......... and Pink.

Crap! Now I feel guilty Curt as I have not forwarded any pics from our Green Giant Buttress outing..........not that there were alot of them.

It is indeed jshamster. Good stuff. Looks like you and BenMurphy had a good trip on the wall.

I had mine stolen off my Toyota truck a couple of years back, when I parked my truck to paddle down the mighty Pilchuck river. The suck thing is I was friendly to a couple of guys that were hanging out near the parking lot even though my gut feeling about them was not positive. Little shits...of course I was near Granite Falls the once Meth Mecca of the universe. Luckily my buddy I was with lived really close and when we got back we nursed my truck back to his house and made a temporary repair in the form of a straight pipe using an old down spout and some bailing wire. Two days later I had welded one from a Hyundai onto the truck and called it good until I sold the truck. Freaking lame,sorry to hear about your victimization.

Rad that is the best trip report I have read in quite a while. Thank you for sharing!

Seriously? I mean is that even a real flipping problem? If I buy one of these will they throw in a free set of Truck Nuts? Sheesh!

Excellent looking route Darin. The picture of pitch 7 is very nice. Can't wait to get on some local granite.

Awesome!

You sure make doing bad ass stuff look easier than it is! Way to go. Great pics.

Nice Curt, but if the avatar that bstach uses does not dissuade someone maybe they deserve what they get?

Recieved the #9 and #10 yesterday. Thanks man, my Met set is now complete! To any interested Squalls was good on his word, easy to deal with and goods were as promised. Help a brother out and buy his stuff!

Awesome Curt! I can think of no better way to spend time. You guys look pretty happy in that last pic. I look forward to the future and the days I can spend outside with my little girl. Thanks for sharing this is great!

I have a very clean and well maintained 05 Subaru outback that I need to sell. I need to get back into a truck for work and I do not need two vehicles. It is black with dark tinted windows and 101k miles. It is an automatic with sport shift and is super fun to drive. Here is the link to the CL ad for photos and further info - 05 Outback Craigslist ad
