7mm is a decent size...much smaller i think your prussiks will be the same diameter, creating a super super tight bite with the rope iff you have to do a crevasse extraction!!! i think 7mm is the smalled dynamic rope too???? i could be wrong!

so thats what issue 119 is....... beat ass shizz rock.......we pondered this all summer....thought it had something to so with wimmin....

jarred, we dont use logic or common sense here...just pure emotion and opinion.... hehehe

maybe, you wanna belay me?? also if so, can i borrow anoher #5 camalot and possibly a #4 camalot??

nope

MAYBE, YOU WANNA GIVE ME A BELAY??? AND I THINK I AM GOING TO NEED TO BORROW ANOTHER #5 AND #4....CAMALOTS PLEEZ...

um yeah?

i am not against the vworld having free daze... could care less....i could even care less what they charge on a day to day basis, a yearly basis or even for a century.... the thing that makes me shake my head is the day they choose to do it....that is all....it would seem like a marketing play dreamed up a smoe liberl think tank to use emotion as a selling point.....

LOOKIN FOR A HOMIE TO FSU ON SATURDAY..... INDEX??? MAYBE EVEN I WILL AID IF THE WEATHER BLOWS BIG TIME... JUST KNOW HOW TO BELAY AND WANT TO CRANKIN A FEW ROUTES....I PLAN ON BEING HUNG OVER AND A FEW MINUTES LATE!!!! ERIK

if they so choose

fern rocks dude.... fern is a chick.... fern is a super fine alpine climber... soo ummm you be wrong ole boy!!!

DONT FORGET PEOPLE WITH OUT HORSES...WHAT WOULD SMALL CHILDEN EAT DURING THOSE SCIENCES MOVIES IN ELEMENTARY SKOOL(THINK ELMERS GLU)?? WHAT WOULD DOGS EAT?? HORSES ARE VERY VERY WONDERFUL ANIMALS, COVERING MANY FOOD GROUPS AND FEEDING ALL THE LITTLE GUYS!!! HOW WOULD DANDELIONS AND OTHER INVASIVE WEED SPECIES GET SPREAD INTO OUR WILDERNESS AREAS? CHEERS TO HORSE JERKY! I WONDER IF A HORSE PERSON WILL COME ON HERE AND TELL US HOW IT IS?

My totally random and non-solid plan at this point is to start at the cascade pass trailhead with a friend very early saturday and climb bucker. He'd head back to cascade pass (has plans on sunday) and I'd continue as far down the trail towards park creek pass as I could. I'd then climb logan sunday and head out towards rainy pass on the thunder creek trail to a waiting car. Seems like a really long weekend, but doable... josh my friends just did this hike without the climbing....said it was great but a alot of hiking.....

i think the things that gets me is that since the 9/11 incident people seem to be more patriotic. why does it take a major cathosptic event to bolster support for one's county? i personally have always believed in the greatness of the United States of America and i always will. the riding of the emotional wave seems to me in some cases insulting. i would say that if someone were affected deeply by those events of a year ago, tha climbing for free for an hour or so doesnt reall offer any healing....... bandwagon patriotism?? is that what it is called. i read and hear about all the free and reduced priced things that will occur this coming week and in so many ways, it saddens me...where were these things after other horried events throughout us histroy? did i miss the free day at vworld after the la riots? or the unabomber acts of terriosm? what would make 9/11 any more significant if it were not for the terriost act? i do not think offering free gym climbing as a gesture to the people who were greatly effected by the tragedy. offer support to those people bys supporting your country and believe in its ideal, not some free crap that should and is free in other more enjoyable mediums.

actually lg.....i would tend to agree with cheppe... i do not know the vworlds intentions, but seeing that is does ironicially enough fall on 9/11, it really makes a person wonder?

DOES THAT MEAN THE IT WILL COST TO CLIMB AT THE CRAGS????

3 HOURS 47 MINUTES...WITH A DAY PACK...1 QUART OF WATER...1 SET OF BD CAMS AND 1 50M ROPE OOPS THAT COLCHUCK.... I DUNNO I HATE THE OTHER TRAIL

jonathan it is called tv induced wussiness....

Seriously, what do you want to try? dont forget chalk for the slab.....it helps with the mental aspect of the runout......train your mind to relax as you dip into the bag..turn your chalk into an escape.....and going off that theroy...looks like someone has been attempting to escape the shit outta the index boulders....thats one thing i dont get...i am fat and weak and only bolder have schnocked...yet i do not need chalk?? sup wit dat shizz??? then again the holds are soooo plastered now, i dont think anyone will ever need chalk there again!!!

well i try to plan ahead and take care of my water issues before i run out...i bonk and i bonk hard so i attempt to avoid it........and i dont always use the pill(hehe) anyways

rumr....... i only do pro bono work for hot chicks!!! sorry anyone else?

i bet i could cut a 1/4 panel of a car and section in a new one...bondo, weld, sand and refinnish it better then cosgrove and smith put together!! who wants to hang with me???

i dont filter either.....filters are a waste of money and weight.... you bring pillz as back up, so why double up on stuff?? i rend not to treat water at all, unless it is in a heavy use area or i know caveman has been there recently. if you dont like idonie taste then use the netraulizer.....or emergen'c packets.... plus filters clog, they get the inside of your pack wet and use have to replace the filter portion of it and they are not always gauranteed to work

i have to agree with dfa....any person watching this show that is above the age of 6. needs to have either their dipers changed along with the tv channel or go out and meet a person or two in whom they can tell their secret fantasies too... come on people what has/is tv doing to your minds...this is entertainment!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

that reminds me of a joke.... a trask is takin a leak one morning and he notices a red circle on his member...freakin out he calls dr flash amazing and sets an emergancy appointment. getting there the doc inspects trask...hmms and haws...and goes no problem...gets out some stuff and takes care of it. doc goes that will be $15. trask pays the good doc, relieved that it was nothing serious. a couple days later trask is takin another leak and sees a brown circle on his member. this time he is a bit more freaked out. calls the doc in a bit of a tirade. sayin he didnt fix him and that there is now a brown circle on his member. dr flash amazing tell him to come in immediatly. so when trask gets there, the doc takes a look...hmms and haws some more and then takes care of it. dr flash amazing goes that will be $20. trask goes wtf man? last time you only charged me $15. the good docs reply........ lipstick is easier to take off then chewin tabaccy!!!!
