actually lummox the COl_ speaka the truth. just got off the phone with a friend down in the valley and they appraoched him as he put food in the his bear box and asked him to leave the valley since he had no proof that he belonged there. including reicpet for entrance, camping permit or a job status. it is bullshit. also the rangers do use covert methods to bust climbers. and a HUGE emphisis on climbers as opposed to normal tourons! it is nice that lober is no longer there!!!!

the scandal Joshua Tree National Park (CA) Conviction for Arson, Vandalism of Natural Resources Joshua Tree NP has historically been a popular gathering spot for outdoor enthusiasts during the Christmas and New Years holidays. During the 2002 holiday, all park campgrounds and facilities were full. While patrolling the Hidden Valley campground after dark on New Year’s Eve, rangers Tim Bertrand and Scott Fischer saw two people on a rock formation above the campground. After hearing the distinctive sound of a tin white gas container hitting the rock, they observed a large fire erupt on the face of the formation. When they identified themselves to the pair, both fled from the area. The rangers apprehended them as they climbed down the back of the formation. They were subsequently identified as Jonathan Thesenga and Erin Whorton. Both were cited for arson, with mandatory court appearances stipulated. Later in the evening, the two rangers were again patrolling the campground. They came across a site with a large fire and several people talking loudly. As the rangers approached the site, they recognized Thesenga and Whorton. Thesenga made several statements indicating that he had no remorse or understanding of what he had done. He stated several times that he planned on doing the same thing next year, and the he would also light several other fires. Thesenga also said that "as the editor," he was not supposed to do things like this. Several days later, the rangers discovered that Thesenga was the senior editor for Climbing Magazine, one of the top two publications on rock climbing. On April 4th, Thesenga and Whorton appeared in federal court. They appeared separately in front of the magistrate, and each pled guilty. Thesenga showed no remorse and did not apologize for his actions to the court. He was sentenced to five years’ unsupervised probation, banned from entering the park for five years, and ordered to pay a $1,000 fine. The court also required him to provide copies of the rangers’ report and the court proceedings to his employer and the magazine’s owner, the Primedia Corporation. Whorton showed remorse and apologized to the court and to the park staff present for her actions. She was sentenced to a $500 fine and three years’ unsupervised probation and banned from entering the park for a period of three years. [submitted by Jeff Ohlfs, Acting Chief Ranger]

COL_ I WONT ANSWER AS I KNOW....BUT IT IS AN EASY ONE!

pdx pub clubs are like the sport bolted slabs of pub clubs.

i think it was last summer or the one before. but we made the trek into the cathedral peak area. on the 20+ mile approach(which is really mellow) one member of our group was struck with deatharhea. poor guy had to go like every 15-20 minutes. it made for a long day for the group and i can only imagine what it did to buddy and the chaffe!

then there is the "shit pillar" incident from last summer. special and i were up at squish for the 4/20 weekend. after buying crack from a toothless guy, we bailed on downtown van. next am we are brewing up the sprolag to wash down our bacon and eggs. it was a 2 or 3 cup morning. the kids never requested attention, or atleast immediate attention, so we blasted up the grand wall. made fairly good time to the base of the pillar. we waited for some eastern europeans to put a cam in, pull, take, rest, put a cam in, pull take, rest...repeated like every 3 minutes. well suddenly the kids were a rumbling and bad. i mean bad. we simul rapped back to the ground and i had my harness half off by the time i reached the ground, and i dove into the bushes just in the knick of time. poor bolder problem.

stanley was guiding a japanese client up the rostrum. he gets to the o/w part and it is slicked with diarreha. he jams thru(almost vomitting) and then lowers a coil for his client. they top out and there are these haulbags hanging right below the notch. some people were apprently top rope aiding the regular route. so stanley took the bags and tossed them. there was quite a scene the next am in the caf. the top rope aiding tourons didn't fare so well.

reason i got a new belay device. 1. i dont like to use my reverso for crag climbing. 2. i ruined my other atc taking a ground fall from the ground unto more ground.(had to be there!) and i am fat so i need extra friction!

hahahahahaha best place to live is here, best place to visit is there.

i got a new belay device. i can't wait to use it. it is an trango pyramid.
