    PDXer homeward bound

    Never really checked him out on the ledge, but a shitter on the balcony of the FS building does sound attractive. The terrorism label is complete bullshit. Judge Redden handled the trial of one of the kids that got accused of the Eagle Creek burns (I think). Anyway, DOJ tried to call them terrorists, and Redden, a Reagan appointee, told them never to use that term again during that trial. Sweet. How much damage has been done to property in the last 10 years? Millions. How many people have been physically hurt? None (that I know of). I'm not advocating for the use of violence, because its often not the best tactic to secure your larger political goals, but it ain't "terrorism."

    "Balcony" = 9 inch ledge of 3rd story window.
  3. Yo I just saw a montana plate at 26th and Clinton that said fshrgrl. Pocacher!
  4. Bend sucks (EXPECIALLY during the summer), Portland sucks ... Oregon pretty much sucks. I stongly recommend you move to Washington. Or better yet Canada. If you do move to Oregon, try Gresham. I hear there's some sweet granite there.
  5. Ah yes, Smith in the Spring. Got in an excellent day on Sunday - Phoenix area and the west side. What a great day. Props to Ian C. How old is Caldwell?
  6. On the CPR front, the standard in the backcountry is 30 minutes. If they aren't back or on advanced life by then, there is very little chance of saving any brain functions.
  7. My ass.
  8. I thought the argument was that with a screaner the rope was stretched out when it shock loaded the piece so you get more force on the pro.
  9. I thought he as a "poxy skinny sport climber."

    Sorry to hear about your knee cj. Must have sounded like Pete bitching about his skins!!
  11. Uh yeah, no kidding unless I'm really tired or really wasted. Even wasted I wonder if I'm a safer driver sometimes.
  12. They're planning to reintroduce the minibus in 2005 or 2006. Check it out. Looks so so.
  13. My fiance totalled my 4Runner by driving head on into a large white cargo van at 40mph+. She emerged unscathed but ripped the front axil off the car. I'd say its pretty damn safe, and she was just as bad a driver in a station wagon. Now I've got a '79 VW ASI Riviera Camper!!

    Sweet Pics Shred. Great Weekend!! And we left a little present for the next group of cc'ers to invade Tilly Jane, but you'll need to know where to find it.
  16. There's also the Elk-King Mt. traverse in the Coast Range. You can find directions to Carver at the Portland Rock Gym's web site. Punch it into Google.
  17. The Cosmic Wall on the Ogre at Castle Crags. 6-8 pitches of 5.6-ish on granite in an alpine setting with a narrow little summit. Schweet!
  18. Jackasses.

    Check it out.
  20. So I went into buy a new pair of shoes at OMC and looked at the 5.10 something. The young tyke says "Oh yeah but there not too good for heel hooking." And I say "Yeah, but I'll use 'em for the alpine." And he says, "Yeah well I heel hook all the time in the alpine and I wouldn't get them." I said "Thanks for the advice. I'll take 'em at $50 off retail sparky." Jackass.
  21. Castle Rock.
  22. Nice TR. I also got spanked by Blue Light on Saturday afternoon. Managed to thrutch up the climb next to it. Saw Tex, GF, MtnHigh and Smokeshow out by Staedner. Chopper rocks.
  23. cams are aid
  24. Sit around your house at night and clip a draw. Hang it from a light or something and just clip it like 10000 times over the course of a few nights at home and you won't have a problem.
  25. way more classicer
