EWolfe Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 Â The guy without the helmet is saying: Â "Damn! I am so suck! I couldn't send that traverse, and now the old man is cruising it. Helmet and gaitors, that's got to be the key..." Quote

Hope that doesn't disappoint you.  I don't like climbing in groups of 12, or 30, or 50. But it doesn't bother me that groups exist out there to teach people to climb and enjoy the great outdoors that we enjoy. I believe their basic climb education classes are designed to teach absolute newbies a few basics, so they can get started without hurting themselves or anyone else. Sure some climbers and instructors may be subpar technically, but that isn't restricted to club-trained climbers. Look at how often goofy anchors, foolish techniques and stupid mistakes have been reported on cc.com.  It just seems to me that you are being needlessly judgemental. I'm confident that there are some members of the Mounties, Mazamas, BeoAlps, Cragrats, or any other group that can climb at a level that even you'd find admirable.  Quote

babnik Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 in other words, learn just enough to kill themselves. sounds good to me! Quote
