  1. thanks a million EWolfe, my chief broseph!
  2. go to chapter two! and sorry there are a few typos in the book - not having an editor (major $$) except for the paper clip guy.
  3. yeah, we use formamide too. we i came in we were using 5uL per 13uL total vol! Do you use the bdt buffer or just toss it (or make your own)
  4. hey mito, how much big dye you using? I'm trying to reduce our consumption
  5. books I owe people should be shipped in a couple weeks
  6. It's print on demand, but I have to buy ~100 at a time to give to distributers for stores.
  7. I included info on bolting because there is not a book on it and people should know how to do it correctly. I bet you would approve actually.
  8. I am trying to set up the "search inside the book" feature on amazon...maybe if you reload the page enough times, you can print out an almost complete copy
  9. yup, that's the best place. thanks guys, and i believe I spelled available correctly on the real cover
  10. Hopefully there's some stuff in here you guys will like, I put a lot of info on training and rehab in it. The long long wait is over, what a relief. It's on my website and on amazon.com - it should be available at retailers, but that may take a bit longer. I hope moderators don't mind if I post it in a couple relevant forums. http://sites.google.com/site/climbingstronger/ You'll see some of our very own crew in the book, including a Scurlock's winning cover shot, a forward from Wayne, and illustrations by Zac Reisner

  12. the worst part of sponsorship is feeling like you have to perform and live up to the reputation and owing the company something. the worst part of someone trying to become sponsored is knowing them
  13. Just don't beat your chests so hard that the ice comes crashing down. then again if it's cold, this much spray may form it up again. spray mushrooms are very hard to climb, howver
  14. HELL YEAH! IMO this is one of the best TR's I've ever seen! Nice work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  15. visors are so cool!
  16. all of which will be explained in my book of course
  17. it's also nice to bring a rope on stuff like you're talking about so you can bail off a cam or nut in case you wound up in over your head
  18. i think folk are misreading your intentions. It i very common to daisy in to an "oh shit" piece to pull through a crux on a free solo and reach down and pull the piece. two daisy chains work well with a small assortment of cams and nuts. if there is fixed gear and you have a rope, you can loop the rope through the piece for 1/2 a pitch to at least stay tied into the mountain.
  19. i wish the world was a giant bolt
  20. complete removal of a climbing area by antibolters in SLC http://www.mountainproject.com/v/northern_utah__idaho/geezer_wall_bolt_removal/106554912
  21. look up the MSDS on teflon?
  22. nice, that's the one I pointed out on top of Davis, right? Up Jay Creek drainage? Looks like a little replica of davis as I recall. Why did you go there? thanks for doing that
  23. I would not reccomend it, and it should be noted that we did not top out as we ran out of time near the top and just one pitch on this thing eats up a lot of time (we were avg .8 hours per pitch since every pitch is an O/W, chimney, and/or spicey spicey fingertip crack).
  24. knee pads, a gardening trowel and a 3-pronged trident would be helpful. also, a cool visor and carharts would make you a better person. if you do this before beckey-choinard then you will enjoy the beckey choinard more than anyone in history.
