Hey all! So I'm training for a big project down south later this spring and I'm looking to get my aid skills dialed! I hear Index is the place! Any one have good route reccomendations up to A3 would be okay, just got my hammer!!! Some place to practice setting up my hammock and haul bag? Soon I hope to have a FISH ledge! Anyways look forward to some reccomendations! Thanks! Rock on! PS Anyone want to partner up? Send me a message!

Nothing?

This is so crazy! I can't belive it, I am new to the online climbing message board thing and this is just crazy how rude you guys can be. I hope when I get a chance to climb with some of you bad ass guys there is no drama! Comeon now were all grown ups, a lot this thread sounds like a bunch of kids whining! Seriously ROCK ON!

Sweet pics guys!!! Scott is a badass, First Kiss looks epic! Nice send justinp! What route is that? My bro and I had an epic ascent of the Pioneer Route the week before! Way to get at it! Rock on!

Wow! Glad to hear your okay LostCamKenny! I would love to go out there for some aiding if anyone is interested. Send me a message. I have a car and most gear. Rock on!

Wicked send! Rock on!

Wow! That is hard core! You guys are animals! Can't wait to get up there and give her a go! What do you reccomend for gear? If your the Bill I met at Smith Rock, you are one bad ass dude! Rock on!

Gee lot's of good and bad beta in here. Some of you have got us psyched to send! While the rest of you obviously just want to sit at your computors and dog on us. Either way we will send. Thanks to all that care to help! Rock on!

Wow! Can't wait to get up there and check it out! Rock on!

Hey all, just wanted to thank everyone for the awsome beta! Looks like it helped us a lot, as my partner and I were able to make the summit of Rooster Rock this past Saturday. Gee that anchor on top is really weird, but everything about the climb was great. I did get a little scarred on the loose rock, so I made sure I sewed the pitch up with gear. Luckily we had a double sized rack to 4" or I probably would have been pretty gripped. Great views of the gorge and Crown Point. Anyone climb Crown Point? Looks like Oregons mini El Capitan. Hope everyone sent hard this weekend! Rock on!

Hi guys, thanks for the support, and the banter. I guess I should make my self a little clearer. I have mostly climbed on the east coast, I just relocated to the west coast three years ago and have slowly been getting into the climbing scene ever since. I have done VMC Direct on aid and some other routes out there as well. Sorry for bothering you. Rock on!

If you are ready for Mescalito, the WF will be casual Thanks, I have heard both routes rated at about C2+, I know one is a lot longer. But if its all the same it should not be too bad. Rock on! PS please no flaming or trolling, this is a serious post!! I think I am going to be able to log on to elcapreport.com and watch you bail in realtime come May. I just found elcapreport.com. Looks awsome! I can't wait to be on there. I will not bail. But thanks for the support. Have you even climbed Mescalito? Thanks in advance to anyone who's acctually nice, and can provide some decent info. Rock on!

Well what gave me the idea was the videos I found online of guys hauling and setting up portaledges there. My partner went by there a couple weeks ago and saw Scott (Plaidman) setting up his portaledge with Big Wall Rick. Maybe you should post signs at the base telling everyone not too. Sorry for pissing eveyone off. Rock on!

Hi all, I've got next week free. I would love to get in another rad aid session out at the Rat Cave. I would like to practice setting up my new portaledge and haul bag. Does anyone want to join? I have a car and can pick you up anywhere in PDX if need be. I've climbed mostly just C1 but I'm eager to learn for my climb of Mescalito this May. Rock on!

Great climb! Rock on!

Has any one climbed Mescalito on El Capitan in Yosemite? I'm looking for any information anyone has. My partner and I are training right now to do Mescalito at the end of May. We will be out at Smith Rock State Park this weekend attempting the West Face route on Monkey Face. Last weekend we went to the Rat Cave for some super rad steep aid climbing. Is there any route in Oregon that Mescalito compares to? I'm getting pretty nervous now but I am quite confident we can climb the Mescalito. With 23 years experince between us. Thanks for any help in advance. My partner has done the Pioneer Route up Monkey Face before so I think that should help. Climb hard and Rock on!!

Thanks guys don't really plan on going up the routes yet. Just wanted to look at them while I'm up there! Wayne Wallace sounds like a BAD ASS!!! I really like his website. Hope everyone hits it hard during the good weather! Rock on!

Any one have information on the Black Spider route? Also the Steel Cliff route? I have heard about it but canot find any information on them. are they hard? Thinken about taken a run up the South Side, should I check them out? Rock on!

These guuys are my new favorite! Rock on!

SE Corner at Beacon Rock State Park! Rock on! edit: Oh and Five Gallon Buckets at Smith Rock State Park!
