i'm trying to get some of my old TR's searchable for other users, can Mods's make this a TR? gracias

and come someone PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAEAASEEEEEE!!!!!!!! post my cutthoat TR (you know the one i'm talking about) as a "[TR]"

mods, can you change this to a "[TR]" ...more to come

but where can i get that soundtrack!

at first I was like, "wow!" then i tried it. i was still clipped in at the end. so what was the difference. BD assumes that ALL THE BAR TACKS RIP, including the last one at the main clip-in loop. The only one that would tear is the one you short clipped into, leaving you still safely clipped in to the anchor. So what's the point of the video?

sure i'll help ya misterE

oh, you crazy guys!

anyone got a floor, sofa, counter top etc I can sleep while i piss and moan that it's raining out, i can't find a partner, or have to work that day (assuming I find a jorb)?

Sunshine, Paddle Flake Direct, Sheldon Rt above camp after you set up your tents.

check out the Ptarmagin Traverse

about 4 pitches

since not many folks probably read the author forum, here;s a link. web page

I really wish I could comment and also give more advice, but since I go to the same school, and will be soon working in that clinic, I just can't. I can say, come see me in the fall, and tell your friends to hold off until the fall. I'm just saying that being a climber as well, I think I can help a bit more.

nevermind, i've decided to scrap the guidebook

Since I've scrapped my idea for writting a guide, here are my ideas for other to pick up where my ambition left off. 1. A coffee table book of the ultra-mega classics of the North Cascades. -Big Colorful spreads of the peak/route -History and accounts, epics, anticdotes from climbers -A detailed topo -Including the big, important climbs, traverses, etc... 2. Ice guide that also includes SW B.C.'s alpine ice routes, like the Sumallo Cirque and Cheam Range!@!! 3. A "locals" guide to routes that either A) didn't make the beckey guide, nelson, or kearney cut B) are only given brief mention/beta in the becky guide This was my "unselected" guide I was thinking of doing. As many photos, maps, and topos as possible, stories, etc For #2 Here is the list of climbs that people have emailed me and I've thought of in no particular order. And, yes, I've included my routes too. -Elephant Head -Ptarmagin Traverse (w/maps,pics) -+New routes on Baring -Infinate Bliss -Davis Peak Routes -+S.Picket's Traverse -NF of +McMillan and *Inspiration -SW Pk Bonanza Russian Rt -+*Goat Wall Routes in Mazama -Burgundy +NE & *E face routes -*Chablis E Face -*WA pass traverse -*Mox -*Back of Beyond Buttress -+Darin Berdinka and Dru's routes in the Anderson Range -*Mythic Wall in the Sisters -*Boola Boola Buttress Routes -Lots of the shorter routes in the Enchantments -*Acid Baby on Asguard Pass -+NE side dragontail new routes -+Gato Negro on Silverstar -*Mox E.Face -*Carlos Rossi Memorial Tower -+Bomber Buttress in Cuthroat Lake -State Crag routes -+The Snout -Routes on *+Illumination Rock and the +Black Spider on Hood -NE Buttress on Dragontail -+Routes in the Cathedrals -The colorado route on Castle Peak -+Tokatie Lake Wall -Swiss Peak skoog rt -*Davis Holland/Lovin Arms Index -*Beacon Rock-young warriors -Memorial Pillar in Neswatcht -Routes on Judge Howay -+Yellow Brick Rd-marble canyon -Routes on pt 7002 -Rampage on -+Stellar Eclipse on Silverstar -N.Ridge Mt Blum -N Ridge mt Cheval -N.Ridge on that granite peak just next to Buck Mtn -+Twin Sisters Travese -Stuart Range Traverse -+classics on Exfoliation Dome -Route on Squire Creek Wall -+Green Dragon at Index -Forbidden pk NW Face -Dragontail Gerber/Sink & Boving, & Dragonfly, +pete/rolf's route -North Ridge Eldorado -Mt Olympus -Whatcom Peak -Columbia, Keyes, Monte Christo -Entiat Traverse -+Heavens Gates 5.11b Index Upper Town Wall 4-6 pitches -Upper 8-mile buttress -Condomorphine -+Entiat Icefall -+NE Face of Mesachie glacier/icefall/4th class ridge -+Backslide Buttress on Gamuza -+W Butt of Old Settler -+Index Golden Arch -*Zig Zag mt Eerie -East Face mt Colonol foster on van cuv island -+Labor Day Rt on NEWS -McNaught Pk N.Face -Victory Ridge Mt Adams -Mowich Face and Curtis ridge Rainier -*Yak Check -*zebra zion, wherever i may roam, w.face var monkey face, smith rock traverse, christian bros traverse, aid line on picnic lunch wall at smith rocks -*Castle Dome NF, Eface, Mt Hubris rts, and Plumbline at castle crags this was just a list of some of my ideas, and some emails I've gotten. I starred * routes i've been on if you want my input for questionable beta, and put a + on routes I can fwd you leads on. Now somebody get to work, or I'll do it if I get paid.

Ok, I've decided to scrap this idea. I don't have the time, patience, and more importantly, the memory of the beta on pretty much any route i've ever climbed to pass it off as reliable beta. Stay tuned for a new thread for others to pick up my idea.....

pagemaker? quark? others? I just need a quick and dirty program, nothin fancy. Can I borrow a copy?

go-light 6-month night

not by name, but he was probably in my class and didn't take any summers off. I don't associate with folks who don't take summers off.

and having the most fun

who was your intern?

You'll go around that second roof on the left and up to some boulders and one with a ton of retreat slings. The face and flakes above are no harder than 5.9 face, the crack below him in the picture is no harder than 5.6. Pass a couple overlaps to the base of the yellow 5.11 wall. This is the combined pitch Kyle was talking about, nearly 200 feet from the top of the psychopath pitch. Ok! So at those belay bolts at the base of the 5.11yellow wall (that I climbed by accident) head right, not up. I just don't want to go back and f' it up again. Gracias.

Hey, do you head RIGHT after this pitch?

or Sysiphus on Goat wall.

i'm thinking about doing it this monday. I went left by accident last time. Any beta for after the 5.9 crack after the 5.11- pitch? Is it a non-obvious traverse out right or something. I went left, suckered in by two fresh looking anchor bolts below a steep hard thin dihedral i went up that ended in a mossy roof. ring a bell? ps. f'in awesome job fininshin that in weather!
